Yup, Ivan's right; the atomic init has to be hidden away within
svn_dso_initialize2's implementation, because this is a public function.

As to the other point, unfortunately I don't see an alternative to
adding explicit calls to dso-init just after apr_initialize() at this
point. Lack of control over global pool destruction is a serious flaw in
APR, but not one we can work around (in general) as long as we support
APR-1.3+.
