Re: [PATCH] Duplicate close of file handle on WIN32

From: <rbb_at_rkbloom.net>

Why is SVN registering a cleanup in this code at all? The comment says
that we have to close the file when the apr_file_t goes away, but the
apr_file_t already has a cleanup in it. This means that the cleanup
registered by svn is superfluous. Just remove that line and this problem
should go away.

Also, there is a FIXME in that code that talks about getting a pool from
an APR type. While that line should just go away for the reasons given
above, any other lines like that should be changed to apr_foo_pool_get().
