I've marked 0.16 as being compatible in the 0.3 branch (for now, at least).

I'm not sure how much that would help as probe_on_transport gets run
very often. Running 'bzr ls' in a directory that is part of a bzr tree
will already try to probe for '.svn' subdirectories before hitting the
.bzr directory in the parent directory.

There may be using in doing that though, as well as lazily importing
svn.* to speed up bzr start time.
