I've made a simple test for lablgtk:
http://git.debian.org/?p=users/vanicat/lablgtk2.git;a=summary

It have been build with:
git svn init -T
svn+ssh://vanicat@svn.debian.org/svn/pkg-ocaml-maint/trunk/packages/lablgtk/trunk/
-t svn+ssh://vanicat@svn.debian.org/svn/pkg-ocaml-maint/tags/packages/lablgtk/
git svn fetch

Some work are needed for the orig.tar.gz, but one could use
filter-branch to change git history in realy any way possible.
