The relevant bit from HACKING is
* Signify internal variables by two underscores after the prefix.
That is, when a symbol must (for technical reasons) reside in the
global namespace despite not being part of a published interface,
then use two underscores following the module prefix. For
example:
svn_fs_get_rev_prop () /* Part of published API. */
svn_fs__parse_props () /* For internal use only. */
So note that the important difference is the presence of the extra
underscore, not the presence of the <lib> name. Of course, file-local
static functions don't get any special prefix at all.
