I went for SVN_DISABLE_PREFIX_SUFFIX_SCANNING in the end (r1129965).
Who knows, maybe it can prove useful someday, if some special build
needs to disable this f.i. because it has problems with the seeking
around of the prefix/suffix scanning (jumping to the end of the file,
then jumping to the start again) or something ...
