I see the following courses of action here as options:

  1. rev svn_repos_history() to add a 'limit' parameter and uses it
     exclusively to control continuation of the function.

  2. rev svn_repos_history() to add a 'limit' parameter and uses it
     in concert with callback cancellation to control continuation of
     the function.

  3. don't rev svn_repos_history(), and use callback cancellation
     exclusively to control continuation of the function.

I certainly don't perceive the need for any type of wrapping function here.
