Based the difference between the signatures of the
svn_wc_parse_externals_description() and
svn_wc_parse_externals_description2(), I would suspect that someone
needs to provide a Python implementation of the following typemap:

    #ifdef SWIGRUBY
    %typemap(argout) apr_array_header_t **externals_p {
      %append_output(svn_swig_rb_apr_array_to_array_external_item2(*$1));
    }
    #endif
