Thanks Branko for the quick clarification.

That explains it; but, what it doesn't explain is why it doesn't
complain with the check_tree_conflict() (which is the next
function after get_node_uri() which has the following:

   svn_wc_conflict_reason_t reason = SVN_WC_CONFLICT_REASON_NONE;
   svn_boolean_t all_mods_are_deletes = FALSE;
   svn_wc_conflict_reason_t possible_conflict_reason;
   svn_node_kind_t kind;

Yet VS2008 compiles it ok. I'm baffled with VS2008's (in)consistency.
