Ah, thanks. Got busy with other stuff, and tried to fix another related
bug in ls-tree which made me forget to send the match_tree_entry fix :-/

That other ls-tree bug is with recursing into subdirectories, because
match_tree_entry matches even when the base is a subdirectory, but
ls-tree doesn't actually want that behaviour, I think. For example:

$ git ls-tree --abbrev HEAD git-gui/macosx/AppMain.tcl
100644 blob ddbe633	git-gui/macosx/AppMain.tcl

$ git ls-tree --abbrev HEAD  git-gui/
100644 blob f96112d	git-gui/.gitattributes
100644 blob 6483b21	git-gui/.gitignore
100755 blob b3f937e	git-gui/GIT-VERSION-GEN
100644 blob 3ad8a21	git-gui/Makefile
100755 blob 12e117e	git-gui/git-gui--askpass
100755 blob e018e07	git-gui/git-gui.sh
040000 tree f723285	git-gui/lib
040000 tree 73f3c34	git-gui/macosx
040000 tree 11cd1a0	git-gui/po
040000 tree 144728d	git-gui/windows

$ git ls-tree --abbrev HEAD git-gui/macosx/AppMain.tcl git-gui/
100644 blob f96112d	git-gui/.gitattributes
100644 blob 6483b21	git-gui/.gitignore
100755 blob b3f937e	git-gui/GIT-VERSION-GEN
100644 blob 3ad8a21	git-gui/Makefile
100755 blob 12e117e	git-gui/git-gui--askpass
100755 blob e018e07	git-gui/git-gui.sh
040000 tree f723285	git-gui/lib
100644 blob ddbe633	git-gui/macosx/AppMain.tcl
100644 blob b3bf15f	git-gui/macosx/Info.plist
100644 blob 77d88a7	git-gui/macosx/git-gui.icns
040000 tree 11cd1a0	git-gui/po
040000 tree 144728d	git-gui/windows

The last ls-tree shows all entries from git-gui/macosx/, beacuse the
first pattern makes it descend into that tree and all entries are
matched by the git-gui/ prefix. So the combined ls-tree shows more than
what the individual calls show. Seems wrong to me, but I'm unsure how to
tackle that, assuming that match_tree_entry is right in allowing any
base that's a subdirectory of a specified pathspec.
