There are some compiler warnings in trunk:

I spot checked a few and they look valid, e.g., the 'url' one will cause
undefined behaviour (dereferencing an uninitialised pointer) if neither 'if'
branch is taken.

I assume most of these should either add an «else SVN_ERR_MALFUNCTION();»
branch, or initialise to NULL.

Cheers,

Daniel
