I think you need to use a parent filter that looks up the old commit ID
in the grafts, and adjusts the parents accordingly.  I don't think I'd
be able to nail it down any further than that without actually trying.

I think the intent of git filter-branch's grafting support is that this
shouldn't happen, so if you can produce a test case then the bug can
likely be fixed.
