Just making sure: did you see the following remark at the end of the
report:

> > The Expat parser creation in {{subversion/libsvn_ra_serf/util.c}} and {{subversion/libsvn_subr/xml.c}} should be fixed as well, but these are in the client-side code (I think), and therefore less of a security concern.

Yes, I noticed that, but forgot that JIRA allows to specify multiple
components for issues. I've added libsvn_ra_serf as component for this
issue. Thanks for heads-up!
