Bump, anybody know of a way to avoid this? The problem even occurs on the
local machine in that git gc will cleanup stuff that isn't required due to
the grafts file, rendering the repo invalid if the graft file is removed.

I don't think running filter-branch on the git svn imported branches seems
like a good idea. since that would also wreak havoc on any repo that pulls
from mine (ie still private repo like usb stick or other dev machine). 

Imho, grafts shouldn't be honored on either push/pull/gc operations.
