Now that I have gdb working with me again, I am checking the git-fetch image to
see where it got lost.  If I must bring a tool such as ElectricFence I, I guess
I must, just I'm a bit irritated that the git build has one of those make
"improvements" (NOT) that instead of telling you the buid line, just gives you
"CC sourcename.c" which for anyone who knows code is just irritating, not any
sort of help at all.

Anyhow, I can do my own testing for a bit now.  I can say that I have tried
other git archives, and it's the git-fetch that seems to be doing it, not the
archive.
