| Great advice, guys. Thanks! I didn't know anything about the option to use a filesystem based repository. Based on your recommendations I think I'm braced to have another go at it with these alterations.

Still, my notes about how to get this up and running are 100+ lines of text - no idea why this had to be such a complex piece of engineering.
After installation, everything works snappy and smoothly. You get back much of cvs' simpleness together with those great new features (e.g. binary diffs, no need for wrappers). Integrates with Xcode now using svn+ssh:// URL's and with svn:// URL's when the Xcode team fixed&published that known bug.

I guess this *could* have just as easily happened with cvs. But over the past five years, it never did. Now it's looking like I'll have to start over from my latest checkout. Anybody care to dissuade me from running back to cvs's arms?
Sure. "No Atomic Checkins". "Corrupt Repository State if Large Commit is Interrupted". "Really Bad Branching Support".
I had a similar problem with Berkeley DB eating my subversion repository. After speaking with the subversion developers about it, I switched to the FSFS backend on all my repositories and have not had another problem like it.
svnadmin create --fs-type fsfs /path/to/repos
