I prefer the previous iteration of Julian's patch, because:

  * I'm pretty certain APR won't want that function, at least in its
current form.

  * Even if it does get similar functionality, I don't think it's
particularly ugly or onerous to continue supporting this in our API.

  * If we're going to have internal symbol names, they should really
start with svn__, not svn_foo__, I think.
