Good eyes.  As the patch "vcs-svn: implement text-delta handling"
bounced forward to a newer codebase it seems we let report_buffer be
initialized twice. :/

About the log message: it would be easier to read text that is (at
least mostly) wrapped to a consistent width.

Okay, okay, more substantive comments.  The ideal log message will
explain what the program currently does, why that's bad, and how the
patch will improve it.  In this example, that could mean something
vaguely like:

	When importing from a dump with deltas, svn-fe's fast-export module
	calls buffer_fdinit to initialize report_buffer twice: once in
	fast_export_init and once in init_report_buffer when processing the
	first delta.  The second initialization is redundant and leaks a
	FILE *.

	Fix it by relying on fast_export_init to initialize report_buffer.
	On one hand explicitly initializing like this is simpler than the
	on-demand initialization implemented by init_report_buffer, and on
	the other hand fast_export_init takes an fd as a parameter rather
	than hard-coding the requirement to read from fd 3.

Except as noted above:

By the way, I think it would make sense to initialize "postimage" in
fast_export_init (and deinitialize it in fast_export_deinit), too, for
a similar reason (simplification).

Thanks.  Patch left unsnipped in case others have thoughts.
