I've run fsck and then flipped the bits manually on these files
to unblock people, but I have no idea how this happened.  These
two were the only files that had the funny bits in the

I can tell from the output of "last" on that machine that I was
present and I am reasonably sure this was from "git repack -a -d"
I manually did.  But my umask is 0002...
