I wonder if there are other useful errors this will silence
unintentionally. Perhaps this would be better (untested)

 test $mod_src = 160000 &&
 test -e "$name/.git" &&
 ! GIT_DIR="$name/.git" git-rev-parse -q --verify $sha1_src^0 /dev/null &&
  missing_src=t

Having said that there are precedents for both in git-submodule.sh. If
there aren't any errors worth catching here then your way is probably
cleaner than mine.
