"make check-sha1" passes.
Before: [torvalds@g5 linux]$ /usr/bin/time git-fsck-objects --full 101.90user 4.66system 1:46.72elapsed 99%CPU (0avgtext+0avgdata 0maxresident)k 0inputs+0outputs (0major+1787158minor)pagefaults 0swaps

which doesn't seem to really imply anything seriously changed (in fact, rerunning it made the numbers even closer).
This is on a G5 powerpc.
Also, "pu" in general is totally unusable. It doesn't even compile.
I think that "Git.xs" thing is fine for random hacks, but please please PLEASE don't make any central program depend on it.
