As Junio pointed out, we may want to make similar changes with other calls in fsck_walk with the function itself as a callback. It might even make sense to have a fsck_walk_full that handles managing the object_array itself.

While we are making changes, there appears to be a copy and paste error from line 74 to line 76 -- the second "broken link from" should probably be " to".

I'd have already submitted a patch for that, but I can't figure out how to tell kmail to not do quoted-printable. :( [And, if I can beat this client into submission I will.]

Linus, sorry about the reply with no snipping or original content. I mis-clicked. :(
