In fact, it works finer than ever, because running 1.0.0 with this
patch on Travis CI notices a possible memmove() -> MOVE_ARRAY()
conversion:

  https://travis-ci.org/szeder/git/jobs/436542684#L576

Surprisingly, running 1.0.0 without this patch, or running 1.0.4
locally either with or without this patch doesn't notice that
memmove() call.  Presumably that's why Jonathan could kind-of "revert"
my conversion from f919ffebed (Use MOVE_ARRAY, 2018-01-22) in his
6a1a79fd14 (object: move grafts to object parser, 2018-05-15) without
anyone noticing.
