 *       risk having the DSO unloaded before all pool cleanup callbacks
 *       that live in the DSO have been executed.  If it is not called

 *       will be a best effort attempt made to initialize the subsystem,
 *       but it will not be entirely thread safe and it risks running
 *       into the previously mentioned problems with DSO unloading and
 *       pool cleanup callbacks.
 *
 * Returns svn_error_t object with corresponding apr_err returned by
 * underlying calls. In case of no error returns @c SVN_NO_ERROR.
