Bah, what I wrote doesn't make any sense.

Let me try again:

I don't understand that syntax.
Is this really treating a pointer to a struct as an array with a single
element? If so, why?

It looks like this is saying "I need 'count' times the size of
a pointer to svn_fs_dirent_t". So why not just write:

  apr_size_t entries_len = count * sizeof(svn_fs_dirent_t*);

Again, the [1] seems redundant. What's it for?

Thanks,
