I like that idea, but I would add an #ifndef around it to be able to not
include deprecated functions. Something like this:

#ifndef SVN_NO_DEPERCATED_FUNCTINS
#include <svn_deprecated.h>
#endif

That way when porting to a new release of subversion it will be much
easier to find the replaced functions by setting that define.

Just my 2 cents.
