When we use this method of achieving a loop pool, then we should drop
documentation hints in the appropriate places:
- recode_write() should state that it may clear BATON->pool
- 'struct recode_write_baton' should document that its pool field
should only be used for temporary allocation within a single
call (or something like that -- I haven't come up with great
phrasing here, but you get the idea).
(Too bad we didn't make 'svn_write_fn_t' take a pool, of course, but
that's water under the bridge.)
Also, though I quake to say it given recent threads, you've got the
no-space-before-paren thang goin' on :-). If you're fixing up the
documentation anyway, you might want to fix that, but no big deal.
