I'll do what I can to speed up the revamp.

repos.c has a function for deleting things (dav_svn_remove_resource). Right
at the beginning, it checks the resource type for WORKING. It should be a
reasonably easy thing to add a check for ACTIVITY, and then to call a new
function in activity.c which would abort the txn and delete the entry from
the activities DBM.

[ note that we aren't keeping that DBM clean; we also need to remove the
  entry when we commit the txn ]

resource->info->root.activity_id has the GUID for the activity,
root.txn_name has the FS's name for the transaction. root.txn is *not* set,
so you'll need to open the txn to abort it.

[ arguably, dav_svn_prep_activity could open it, but we can wait on that ]
