The problem seems to be that as soon as we hit something that is found
in a pack that is not on the ignore list, that object and all it's
parents are marked as uninteresting. So if the kept pack contains a
slice of commits (v1.4.3..v1.4.3.3) the revision walker will only return
the recent stuff (v1.4.3.3..) and drop the older data (..v1.4.3).

The following patch does fix the problem Nicolas reported, but for some
reason I'm still getting only 102 objects (only tags and the commits
they refer to?) with your test.
