I introduced the subpool because I saw suddenly a huge memory usage,
which I suspected was due the strings not being cleared from the pool.
The problem turned out to be something else though.

However, there's another reason why I create a subpool. The function
is_canonical (private function in path.c) is calling svn_path_is_root,
but that function doesn't have a pool available and is called by other
functions which don't have pool parameters.

I'll include your and Branko's remarks in my next patch.

Lieven.
