Yes, I had the same worry, since I did not know which system(s) required
the above #ifdef and, perhaps more important, why.  Having said that, I
suspect (hope?) that the affected system(s) are somewhat rare.  I guess
it would not be long before someone complained otherwise...

[Note: I can't just blame the above #ifdef because I don't have a real
git repo ;-) - it would simply blame me!]

Yes, otherwise:

builtin-pack-objects.c: In function `prepare_pack':
builtin-pack-objects.c:1760: warning: passing arg 2 of `find_deltas' from incompatible pointer type
make: *** [builtin-pack-objects.o] Error 1

Note that ll_find_deltas() is #defined to find_deltas() in the #else arm
of #ifdef THREADED_DELTA_SEARCH, and find_deltas() takes an "unsigned *"
