In the past I've wanted to make the svn_opt target-parsing stuff get
transformed to return not arrays of 'const char *' but arrays of
svn_opt_target_t (or some new structure for holding parsed target-y stuff).
  At the time I wanted to do this because I wanted the following fields:

    const char *path;
    svn_opt_revision_t peg_revision;

So if you go this route of return structures with paths and path-type enums,
consider also plopping the peg_revisions in there, too.
