Yeah, I don't think it matters, but I'll mention it.

Correct. The original "prune" silently ignored this case, but I think
it makes sense to complain about oddities. We must treat ENOENT
as a noop, even though the value comes from readdir() and therefore
should exist. A simultaneous prune might have deleted it (hopefully
nobody is insane enough to run two prunes at once, but ignoring
directories that went away seems like the only sane behavior to me).

Yes, this matches the original prune behavior (and anyway, this is the
object database; anything that is not a loose object is cruft).

Ack, good catch. This was originally in the outer for_each_loose_file
loop, but I thought it was more clear to handle it in the subdir
function. Not only is path->buf wrong here, but de->d_name is totally
bogus here.
Will fix in the re-roll.

I tried to clarify that by indicating that we iterated only over the
"loose-object parts of the object directory". I guess that needs a more
clear definition.
