I assume you mean svn_uri_is_canonical()?

The svn_path API has always only supported URIs only, so the API has
been broken on Windows all along. With the introduction of svn_dirent
and svn_uri we started to fix this, but this work isn't finished. Where
possible, the svn_path function is now a wrapper around the svn_uri
function. This should be the same behavior as it was before, as
demonstrated by the still passing unit tests.

Why should we revert the API? The only thing left to do is to discuss
whether the new API is final as is, or if we need to tweak it here and
there. My concern is mainly in passing a pool to all functions, and
returning svn_error_t. But there was a suggestion that this can be
postponed till later, so to update the API where needed in 1.7.
