Multiple ways of doing exactly the same thing.

If I see #ifdef SVN_WIN32, then I'm going to wonder how it is different from
#ifdef WIN32. Do some research and spend the time only to figure out they
are the same semantics.

Taking your logic to the ridiculous extreme, we could have two names for
every function in Subversion. You get to choose which one you want to call.
Wouldn't that be fun? :-)
