By the way, when you say that you suspect an attempt to replace an object 
that is directly listed on the command line would not work very well with 
the current replace series, is it related to the unparsing commit problem?
What I fear is something like this.

	git push $there 04a8c^2:master

It would need to parse 04a8c to find its second parent and then start
discussing what object to send with the other end.  "04a8c^2" is a direct
user input and should mean the same commit as git show "04a8c^2" would
give the user, so it obviously needs to obey the replace rules (making
04a8c parsed), but the object transfer should not look at replace at all
(that's the whole point of not using the "graft hack" that cannot be
sanely transferred to the other end).
