longjmp?!! I hope that I never see a longjmp anywhere in SVN. Its presence
would indicate *very* serious problems with the design and architecture of
the code. longjmp is "handy", but is a poor excuse to taking the time for
nicely structured code.

And hey... Windows will probably want to use libsvn_client rather than
client/ in any case.
