Shouldn't the allocator have a mutex registered with it, given that
svnserve is multithreaded?
No. I believe each thread gets its own allocator and pool, from which it
creates subpools as required. When the thread exits it destroys the
pool, which destroys the allocator since the pool has been set as the
owner. So each allocator is only used by one thread.
Thanks Philip for looking into it and seeing that we're fine.
