My (admittedly light) testing shows that the check only works in the
top-level directory of a repos. E.g. repos/hook has the same problem
as does repos/db in my example. So does repos/db/revs etc.

Ah, thanks for the hint! This seems to fix it:
[[[
* subversion/libsvn_repos/repos.c
(svn_repos-create): Prevent repository creation within all subdirectories
of a repository, not just within the top-level one.
While here, show absolute paths in error messages, and send a less
confusing error message when the user tries to create a repository
at the location of an existing repository.
