strace has just confused me more:

access("/srv/git/rox-lib/objects", X_OK) = 0
access("/srv/git/rox-lib/refs", X_OK)   = 0
lstat("/srv/git/rox-lib/HEAD", {st_mode=S_IFREG|0644, st_size=23, ...}) = 0
open("/srv/git/rox-lib/HEAD", O_RDONLY) = -1 EACCES (Permission denied)
write(2, "fatal: Not a git repository: '/s"..., 48) = 48
exit_group(128)                         = ?

stephen@kerofin:/tmp> ls -l /srv/git/rox-lib/HEAD
-rw-r--r-- 1 stephen users 23 2008-01-19 18:35 /srv/git/rox-lib/HEAD

That's world-readable so why the EACCES?  The intervening directories are
also world readable (otherwise how could the lstat succeed?).
