I'm assuming this unreliability with subversion-1.8 and git-svn is the
reason for this:

$ git svn clone -s -r90000:HEAD
https://svn.macports.org/repository/macports/trunk/dports
Initialized empty Git repository in /Users/ram/macports/dports/.git/
Using higher level of URL:
https://svn.macports.org/repository/macports/trunk/dports =>
https://svn.macports.org/repository/macports
perl5.12(6874) malloc: *** error for object 0x7fed70e2ae00: pointer
being freed was not allocated
*** set a breakpoint in malloc_error_break to debug
error: git-svn died of signal 6

Cheers
