use apr_size_t

The cast is unnecessary. keybuf is already a 'char *'

The cast isn't needed.

Why all the funny casting? pack_func should be declared to return an
'svn_string_t *' since that is what you're expecting from it anyways.

Also note that you're passing svn_pack_bytestring() as a pack_func, but that
returns a stringbuf, not a plain string (Badness!). But I've gotta ask: what
the heck is this "pack function" *for* ? You've got a buffer and length, so
why not just construct an svn_string_t yourself? For example:

  svn_string_t propval;
  
  propval.data = valbuf;
  propval.len = vallen;

  .... set_FOO_property(record_baton, keybuf, &propval);

Given that there is a single caller of parse_content_block(), and that
svn_pack_bytestring is always passed, and that that is inherently wrong, I'd
suggest the simpler route suggested above.

WOAH! You simply cannot allocate that on the stack. You're looking at over
a 100k(!)

I'd suggest allocating the block once at the start of the parse, and simply
reusing it within the parse_content_block() function. e.g. have some kind a
"parse_ctx" structure which can hold that buffer (and maybe a couple
stringbufs for the key/value buffers which can be sized properly and reused).
