Please remember that in such clone you _don't_ have grafts info (unless
you copy it manually), so it is a good test if you correctly rewrote 
history using git-filter-branch.  So take a look at history in your 
clone using gitk or some similar tool.

In the history you mentioned:

    ...---a---*   b---c---d---*   e---...
           \     /         \     /
            \-X-/           \---/

you should rewritr from 'a'=='X^' to, and including 'e' (and not only 
from 'd').


But if it is not the case I'm afraid I wouldn't be able to offer any 
further insight...
