+ See http://support.microsoft.com/kb/90530/en-us for the ugly details on
+ this system that was already deprecated when we started Subversion and
+ on why we should have used __declspec(dllexport) when initially exporting
+ this variable. (It would allow avoiding the pointer transformation).

+ on Windows until Subversion 2.0. */
