The only reason for this I could imagine is some perl utility failure to feed the body to git http-backend. I could not reproduce it either, but if such things happen often again maybe should concider C helper instead. Though I'm afraid I easily can make more mistakes in it than perl interpreter authors. I'll make the other changes, and sofar just hope it would not happen again.
