1.7.1 soon - Please review

        Hi,

With the current stream of user reports of a few specific upgrade problems
Hyrum intends to cut a Subversion 1.7.1 soon.

I would like to see the following patches that are in STATUS to go in, but
they need more votes:

* r1185242: Trivial patch that resolves a common concurrency problem in
clients that use a database multithreaded.
Already applied by the VisualSVN team before 1.7.0 was released and
currently about causes 60% of the AnkhSVN error reports for 1.7.0. The
r1185280 group is needed to avoid failure in a testcase that relied on
undocumented SQLite behavior.

* r1185738 group: Adds the missing implementation to allow upgrading
'absent' nodes properly. In the open source world we don't use the authz
features, but a lot of enterprise users do use this.

* r1185911 group: A very simple fix that resolves a regression on updating
sparse directories.

* r1181609: Fixes a major regression for our api-users that perform a 'svn
status -U' .

There are a few other interesting patches in there that could also use some
votes.

So please, start reviewing.... and/or keep those issue reports coming before
other users encounter them :)
