Thanks. The weird thing is that running t1450 on 76e37e2 gives me this
output:

broken link from     tag 66f6581d549f70e05ca586bc2df5c15a95662c36

whereas from your original email, you had:

which is weird. We do call "remove_object $sha", but only inside
test_when_finished. I wonder if there is some bug with
test_when_finished on your platform. Have you tried instrumenting the
remove_object function to print a message when it is run? That might
give us a clue if it is accidentally being run early.

I've tried but been unable to reproduce on Linux, so it seems like
something OS X specific.
