AFAICS, obj_allocs is a power of two.

Yes, I already have something like these in my tree (the latter
did not help much as far as I could tell, though).

****HOWEVER****

Do not use this (not just my patch but with the whole hashtable
version) in your production repository yet.

I've got a mysterious corruption and bogus output from
fsck-objects, and have been tracking it (see the timestamp of
this message).

1.2.0 will most likely to be be *delayed*.  I have to first make
sure my private repository is sane.  Grrrrrrrr.
