Re: problem with 'svn diff -r FOO:BAR' over ra_svn

I think I know what's going on.

ra_svn_close() relies on

      apr_file_close(conn->in_file);
      apr_file_close(conn->out_file);

to cause the child ssh process to exit. But when the second ssh process
is created, it inherits the file descriptors from the first ssh
process. So those file descriptors are held open, and the ssh does not
know to exit.

I will figure out the appropriate APR magic to set the file descriptors
close-on-exec.
