I ran the testsuite over it, and it appears to work just fine, but I'm not sure
if this is the most optimal fix.
Shouldn't the svn_fs_contents_changed() just return the right value we need
here?
I would guess it can perform the same checks as svn_repos__compare_files() but
in a way that doesn't depend on the sha1 keys to be available for old
repositories.
Stefan, do you know more about this function and why it does what it does today?
