Actually I think my test failure is related to da3efdb17b, see the
"[PATCH v2 2/2] receive-pack: detect aliased updates which can occur
with symrefs" thread.
The patch under discussion here might be good, I don't have the
knowledge to review it. But it's probably not what's causing the issue
i had with t5516.
