Perhaps I'm just missing something in your code, but this fragment makes
it look to me that stat is always called in find_sha1_file even when there
are no alternates:

+        char *name = sha1_file_name(sha1);
[...]
+        if (!stat(name, &st))
+                return name;
+        for (i = 0; i < num_alt; i++) {
