Yeah, that was it; the script below will correctly handle not only
the simple example above, but also some real cases. 

Usage: git-find-branch-for <rev> [long-lived-branch]

Returns some merge commits, making it easier to find out from which
branch a change originated. Returns nothing if it did not find an
interesting merge all the way up to long-lived-branch (which defaults
to "master")

Example, using git.git:

$ time ../../../stefans-script bac80370817
4fa088209c81845e73756a4173a8c954e25958d2 Merge branch 'jk/run-command-use-shell'
225f78c817755bebff91629cc525a258cf60eaea Merge branch 'master' of git://repo.or.cz/alt-git into jn/autodep
037c43c68e220739e690540de89a6d5835fefe73 Merge remote branch 'ko/master' into jc/read-tree-cache-tree-fix
1m23.271s user   0m2.173s system   1m26.389s elapsed   98.90% CPU

$ time ../../../git-find-branch-for bac80370817                             
4fa08820    Merge branch 'jk/run-command-use-shell'        * jk/run-command-use 1263743895
225f78c8    Merge branch 'master' of git://repo.or.cz/alt-git into jn/autodep   1264500524
037c43c6    Merge remote branch 'ko/master' into jc/read-tree-cache-tree-fix    1278615350
0m0.270s user   0m0.017s system   0m0.287s elapsed   99.87% CPU
$

So it's also a little bit faster.
Received very little testing, i only tried it on a few commits, other
than the example from this thread, but so far seems to do the right
thing for all of them.
Unpikifying is left as an exercise for the user. ;)
