Excellent timing! This is indeed what I, too, ran into when adjusting
microsoft/git to v2.39.0-rc0. Here are the relevant links for the failing
and the succeeding runs, for the very same commit, but in different
repositories and with different `ubuntu-*` images:

Failing (ubuntu-22.04):
https://github.com/dscho/git/actions/runs/3533530319/jobs/5939252441#step:1:8

Succeeding (ubuntu-20.04):
https://github.com/microsoft/git/actions/runs/3532815597/jobs/5927646267#step:1:9

Having said that, I applied your fixes on top and pushed out a test
branch, but `p4d` still segfaults for me:

https://github.com/dscho/git/actions/runs/3538788474/jobs/5939977231#step:3:387

I hope that we can get this fixed very soon and am _very much_ in favor of
fast-tracking the patches once we confirm that they fix the CI builds.

Thanks,
Dscho
