Summary: HGTK crash in libapr

Initial Comment:
I am running Windows Vista x64, but I this probably occurs on other versions

Repro:
   1. Install TortoiseHG and the latest Subversion command line client
   2. open a command line and cd to a hg repo
   3. type hgtk log

Expected:
   a cool hgtk log window

Actual:
   an access violation in libapr.dll :(


After some research, I noticed that in the subversion directory there is a 
libapr.dll and in tortoisehg there is a libapr-1.dll. If I remove the 
subversion dir from the path, then hgtk works fine. It appears that the app is 
trying to load libapr, first it searches the path for libapr.dll, then it 
searches for libapr-1.dll. This means that if subversion is installed on my 
machine it always fails.

demandimport should make this problem go mostly away, but this is still
annoying.
moved to bb issue about the installer

In fact, renaming the file does fix the problem.

Message:
This occurs on multiple versions of subversion. This occurred when I had
v1.4 installed and continued with v1.5.

Since the Dll loader in windows searches the directory the exe is located
in before the path. It would seem that this issue could be resolved by
renaming libapr-1.dll -> libapr.dll.

Message:
What version of svn have you installed on your system? The installer for
TortoiseHg 0.4.1 comes with svn binding v1.4.6 (for python 2.5), which
seems to contain the different (newer?) version of libapr.dll.

I am not sure what's the best way to manage such conflict though, other
than installer a version of svn using the same libapr.dll.
