After I've replaced(or removed!) %windir%\system32\cygz.dll with the newer one in Cygwin, git 1.7.0.4 worked well. Perhaps I've manually copied an older cygz.dll to there sometimes ago.....I can't remember. Some sub-commands of git like git-upload-pack tries to load a wrong/conflicting version of dll from somewhere. Note that I have the registry value to allow "loading DLL from the same directory preceding the path" but %windir%\system32 is always the first in the PATH environment variable.
