Strictly speaking, that's a backwards-incompatible change. Since the
new definition is no longer an rvalue, API consumers' code would break
if they used svn_hash_sets() as part of a statement. Example:
/* This works with svn 1.8. */
#include <subversion-1/svn_hash.h>
#define my_foo() (svn_hash_sets(h, s), 42)
I think we have to either errata this, or restore svn_hash_gets()'
previous definition and name the do-while version svn_hash_gets2().
Makes sense?
Cheers,
