Yes, this is obviously the culprit. The --git-path switch to
git-rev-parse wasn't always available.

Alex, Stefan, can you please fix the issue (I already tried to revert,
but it was part of a longer train, so not that easy). Generally, before
using `git rev-parse --git-path` you have to test if it is supported.
In flashrom, I added a check if it just returns `--git-path` (4164c541).

Nico
