Ack.

Looks good here.  I can now sync from the p4 tree into git, check out
from git and do a clean build, and everything's happy.

Thanks for the quick fix, Simon!

One observation on git-p4 -- it's a little memory hungry when processing
large syncs.  I haven't tried incremental syncs on top of the initial
one though -- if it's only the initial that's expensive it's not that
big a deal.

It seemed to top out around 988MB resident.  The branch I was importing
is about 562MB when checked out and the resulting git repository is
about 175MB.
