OK. So shall I go ahead and add the private svn_pluginname__version()
functions, and also append them to the vtable? (I take it the nicest
place to add them is at the end.)

Also: can the public svn_ra_svn_version() function -- checked by
svnserve -- be used in the vtable for ra_svn?

I did consider adding some code for checking the versions of plugins to
lisvn_fs and libsvn_ra, but TBH I'm not confident to do that at this stage.

Edmund.
