No, mine passes the vanilla test suite, but fails with GIT_TEST_LONG.
If the want/have negotiation takes multiple rounds, the intermediate
rounds don't end on a flush packet, and my patch causes remote-curl to
complain that the response was truncated.

I think you could fix it by teaching remote-curl that the final packet
must be a flush _or_ contain an ACK/NAK, but I didn't try it. That's
getting a bit invasive and brittle.
