Oops, it's quadruple hashing: one for object sha-1 (1), one for pack
sha-1 while writing pack (2), two for pack header fixup: one after the
the header fixup (3), and one repeating the same (2) just to verify
that it matches (2) exactly (4). Do we have to be this paranoid? I
think we could drop (2) and (4) in this case.
