Before I review the patch itself, I want to point out that in all earlier
iterations of this patch, I also broke it down to multiple patches (two in my
case, constituting your 1 and 2-4). No one stepped forward to attempt a review
until I combined both parts, at which point both Julian and Phillip gave me some
feedback. I realize that this may have simply been due to who was available for
a review and when.

I do not intend to criticize anyone here, since I value the superior coding that
goes into this project. But I want to suggest that the more senior developers
should consciously try to respond to patches with at least some feedback, even
if you cannot perform a full review. It would have been valuable to me to have
confirmation that others thought performing the core changes in libsvn_subr
independent of the other libraries usage of that code was appropriate here. I
got no feedback, and hence stopped sending two patches, thus making your review
more difficult.

You mean Julian. I'll re-review after breakfast...
