I can't reproduce that.  Make sure your git is reasonably recent, and
try "clbuild trash parenscript" to get rid of any existing broken
checkout you might have.

BTW, I think should we should have a policy against git repositories
using http:// URLs.  It's very easy to set up automatic repo.or.cz
mirrors for those projects, and cloning from those using git:// tends to
be faster and more reliable in my experience.  (Some of the projects
affected are my own repositories.  I'll move them sometime soon.)
