Hmm. Searching for clues I saw this
http://stackoverflow.com/questions/12042363/cygwin-git-fork-error-on-pull

and tried out with minimal PATH:

$ PATH=/bin:/usr/bin git svn rebase
Current branch master is up to date.

Default PATH on the machine includes various tools, compilers, CMake etc.
Tried to bisect it but it seems that full long PATH has an 80% failure rate
while mimal PATH=/bin/usr/bin has a 20% failure rate, but I could not identify
which PATH component could be to blame.

Somehow PATH is related to this but maybe it's just a side effect.
