It would only mean not exposing STL constructs in libsvn_client wouldn't
it? As the entire project will typically be built with the same
compiler, then you can expose whatever constructs you like through the
other libs, just not in the one people may link to with their own compilers.

We generate both C and C++ interfaces in our libraries so people who use
the same compiler can use the C++ interface if they wish and others can
use the C interface. The entire project is C++ though.
