I'll take that as a declaration that circular dependencies at the object code
level are not allowed in our Windows build. That's fine; it's not a good idea
to structure code libraries that way anyway.

So, that's about the end of it as far as I'm concerned. We can move
source-level-only things to libsvn_fs, but I don't see any of those at the
moment. Anything more drastic, given the rest of the comments in this thread,
I'm not going to consider.

Thanks for the discussion.
