[PATCH] svn: enforce exact version match

From: Daniel Shahaf <danielsh_at_elego.de>
Date: Thu, 11 Jul 2013 02:22:10 +0300

We decided a while ago that the cmdline client and all C libraries must
be upgraded in lockstep.[1] However, a Subversion 1.7.10 client out
there happily uses 1.7.9 libraries that happened to be lying in the
runtime linker's search path.

The enclosed patch fixes that to require exact version match in svn and
in libraries that have an svn_ver_check_list() call. (Some libraries
have that, and some don't; I haven't looked into the reason for that.)

Thoughts?

(I'll add svnadmin, svnserve, etc to the patch before commit.)

[1] I am not sure that was the right decision, but anyway, that's what
we decided.
