I had thought of that. Doing so would of course mean that the patch has
to change a bit, since putting the loading into svn_cmdline_init would
no longer be appropriate (that function is called by all command-line
tools, including svnserve). That requires a new public API to set up
crash reporting, and that API would need at least a parameter (not used
yet) throught which you'd tell it if you want online (i.e.,
dialogue-based) reporting of offline (file-based) reporting.
We'd also need a small change in "almost every" command-line tool so
that it calls the new function in addition to svn_cmline_init. (Or
perhaps insted of, if the new function is a wrapper for the old one?
Maybe we could even do it by revving to svn_cmdline_init2?).
I'd find this solution acceptable.
