I thought the purpose of this change is to make sure that we drop
packed objects from results when --unpacked is given?  This makes
it sound as if we are dropping unpacked ones instead?  I dunno.

Strictly speaking, as long as all the objects that are not in packs
are shown, "print the object IDs that are not in packs" is satisfied.
With this fix, perhaps we would want to tighten the explanation a
little bit while we are at it.  Perhaps

	print the object names but exclude those that are in packs

or something along that line?

The implementation is as straight-forward as it can get.  Very
pleasing.
