Description

Most current iteration pools are cleared at the end of each iteration, 
and destroyed after the loop terminates.

However, if there are 'continue' statements in the loop body, the pool 
may not get cleared.

Placing the call to 'svn_pool_clear' at the *beginning* of the loop body 
will solve this problem.

This issue is a reminder to change existing code to use the new 
convention.  (The HACKING document will also be updated to reflect the 
new usage.)
