The gpool is used in SVN::Ra. Removing this will cause the Ra libs to be
initialised
with the current default pool when SVN::Ra is required, which is bad.

I was puzzled by the this segfault for a long time, but i found recently when
hacking on other projects that perl does not repsect references when destroying
"ours". I might have a patch to workaround this.

Cheers,
