You seem to be correct. Looks like my issue is that I set MALLOC_CHECK_
and MALLOC_PERTURB_ in my shell environment. If I unset them then I get
different failures with the versions from testing. It appears that some
part of the stack is causing heap consistency issues:

I have unstable in my sources.list, but held back with pinning. After
upgrading python2.7, bzr, python-bzrlib, bzr-git, bzr-gtk I get no
failure cloning bzr-stats with MALLOC_CHECK_ and MALLOC_PERTURB_ unset,
lp:unity fails with a different error and debbugs is taking ages.

That said, the resulting git repositories have some issues with gitk and
the bash shell prompt git functions, bzr-stats for example: git tag
complains about duplicate tags and gitk also complains about an error
parsing revisions.

With upgraded python2.7, bzr, python-bzrlib, bzr-git, bzr-gtk and both
MALLOC_CHECK_ and MALLOC_PERTURB_ *set*, `git clone bzr::lp:bzr-stats`
fails silently and dumps a core file (I have that turned on),
unfortunately the stack trace that results is quite useless.

How do you want to proceed here?
