If I clone from your repo, I do indeed get a corrupt clone.  But if I
download the raw repo, set up a server locally ("fossil server
vd-2012-03.fossil") then clone it locally ("fossil clone
http://localhost:8080/ vd-new.fossil") the clone works just fine.

What does your webserver setup look like?  Might it be doing an undesirable
\n to \r\n translation or something, that is messing of the clone traffic?
(I'm fishing for ideas here because I don't know what is wrong.)
