As Jeff pointed out, the patches to refs.c were mostly dropped, as the
code that they modified had been removed.  The likelihood of conflict is
therefore low unless you're using struct object a lot.

My preference is that new code use object_id where possible, because
otherwise I'm going to have to go through it later and fix it up.
Keeping in mind that the refs code is likely to undergo a lot of
changes, I'll try to keep away from it for now, but it will need to be
converted at some point.
