I spent a couple hours this morning...

Then perhaps that is a clue that AutoOpt is not the right tool for
this job?

Don't get me wrong. I am not knocking AutoOpt. I have looked at it
and it is very powerful and flexible.

However, I think I am making a worthy observation when I note the
statement you make above.

What I mean is, there are two points you make that we should all take
to heart:

1) as progress continues on the client spec it grows away from being
   easily compatible with AutoOpt

2) the idea that we are plugging the subversion client into AutoOpt

Remember, this is just an observation. Maybe I am just being petty
over semantics; but I think it might be more appropriate to think in
terms of using an option parser that we can plug into the subversion
client, rather than the other way around.
