The reason why it makes core is that
fs-loader.c:default_warning_func() calls abort(). The reason
why fs-loader.c:default_warning() is called is that the Ruby
bindings 1.4.x doesn't clever for memory management. The
ruby bindings trunk improved that.

The following change is a workaround for this problem.

We may think about svn_fs's warning_func API on the Ruby
bindings. Supporting this feature may cause a problem
because warning_func may be called after Ruby is cleanuped
(this case).
