build.conf contains "undefined-lib-symbols = yes" for libsvn_test.

Though in general, seems that disallowing undefined references is
preferable (when possible).

IIRC, libsvn_fs depends on libsvn_fs_{fs,base} depend on libsvn_fs_util.

So if code in fsfs or bdb wants to call svn_fs_validate_mergeinfo(),
then the code they call should live in libsvn_fs_util.

(This probably means "Yes".)
