From what I can remember, it certainly looked to me like the FSFS code
requires that a transaction is only updated by a single thread.

For example, when we receive a text-delta for a file, we just stream the
resulting delta to the end of the proto-rev-file (of which there is only
one per transaction), and that certainly won't work if two callers call
svn_fs_apply_textdelta() simultaneously on the same transaction root.
