The "Use 'svn help -v' to show global options" patch is broken:
re-compiling /usr/local/share/zsh/5.7.1-dev-0-mika/functions.zwc:
zrecompile:41: parse error near `fi'
the resulting code is:
  if _cache_invalid svn-help-takes-verbose || ! _retrieve_cache
svn-help-takes-verbose; then
    if [[ $(_call_program svn-help-v svn help help) == *--verbose* ]]
    _svn_help_takes_verbose=$(( ! $? ))
    _store_cache svn-help-takes-verbose _svn_help_takes_verbose
  fi

which has both unclear indentation and intention. I would fix it but I
don't know if you meant to include both lines in the if. Please don't
use short_loops malformed syntax in distributed code because it always
leads to incorrectly written code like the above.
