Lest anyone become too worried about this: I'm not going to let this
project divert my attention from getting 1.8 out the door. I had this
idea on the back burner for a long time, and just now found a bit of
time when I had to clear my head; so I decided to at least get the build
infrastructure in place.

Would versioned namespaces not do the trick?
e.g.:
namespace svncxxhl_v1 { ... }
namespace svncxxhl_v2 { using svncxxhl_v1::foo; ... }
namespace svn { namespace cxxhl = svncxxhl_v2; }

The object model stuff is probably a bit dated, but some of the ideas
probably still hold. If there's anything I learned through that
experience, it was that we'll probably need to use something like pimpl for
any type of backward compatibility within the C++ bindings themselves. Ugh.

I don't know yet. I'll be looking at that more closely when the time
comes, but I'll also take notes from JavaHL. I feel it's important that
we hide the details of the C API (for example, its dependency on APR)
from this high-level interface.

How does this compare to Hyrum's "object model"?
