This is a common assumptions for stdio to go over the network, and other 
behaviors are already adjusted accordingly.  And not only in 
pack-objects but in index-pack too.  So unless you have a really 
compelling reason to override this, I don't think it is worth having 
another command line argument just for the sake of it.
