This "echo" patch was not a fix.  It was only an expeditive hack to 
demonstrate the problem.  Please consider this stripped down test case 
instead:

-------- >8
#!/bin/sh
#

LF='
'
IFS="$LF"

    ( : subshell because we muck with IFS
      pack_lockfile=
      IFS=" 	$LF"
      (
	  echo "keep	123456789abcdef0123456789abcdef012345678"
      ) |
      while read sha1 remote_name
      do
	  case "$sha1" in
	  # special line coming from index-pack with the pack name
	  keep)
		  pack_lockfile="$GIT_OBJECT_DIRECTORY/pack/pack-$remote_name.keep"
		  echo "pack_lockfile set to $pack_lockfile"
		  continue ;;
	  esac
      done &&
      if [ "$pack_lockfile" ]; then echo "rm -f $pack_lockfile"; fi
      echo "pack_lockfile=$pack_lockfile"
    )
-------- >8

The output I get is:

pack_lockfile set to /pack/pack-123456789abcdef0123456789abcdef012345678.keep
pack_lockfile=

In other words the line with the echo "rm -f ..." never shows up and I 
don't know why.

I hope you (or anyone else) will be able to have a look at this.  My 
shell programming skills are simply not up to it.
