I don't like very much hardcoded addresses like this. Are you 100% sure
address 1 will never be returned by xstrdup on any platform? The risk is
small if not negligible, but I'm unconfortable with this. Isn't there an
alternative (NULL, or empty string) that is guaranteed to never happen?

This doesn't seem to test the problem I was having (move a file, not a
submodule). Is this intentional?

In any case, this fixes my problem, thanks!
