Oh, it wasn't already done, I did it in response to your mail :-).

True, though if that day doesn't arrive before 1.0, I have doubts it
will ever arrive... However, if you want to work up a patch, that
would be great. 'svn_initialize' is great, but I'd say put it in
svn_pools.h, since there's no other obvious place for it, and it at
least has something to do with pools. And patch the HACKING file as
well, of course.
