I know that there is no name collision problem with type names. But
Subversion Community Guide still require library prefix even for
structure names [1]:
[[[
All published functions, variables, and structures must be signified
with the corresponding library name - such as libsvn_wc's
svn_wc_adm_open. All library-internal declarations made in a
library-private header file (such as libsvn_wc/wc.h) must be signified
by two underscores after the library prefix (such as
svn_wc__ensure_directory).
]]]
I think that svn_client__private_ctx_t structure name will be clearer
for readers since it gives a context where this type come from.
