I downloaded the source, built and installed it. I only needed a minimum
set of flags to pass to the configure script: I pointed to where the
berkely db files were and where subversion should be installed. (I
installed berkeley db version 4.2.52 before installing subversion)

Red Hat Linux release 9 (Shrike), kernel 2.4.26wsx86.

Yes, it is reproducible and yes I do have a core dump. Should I send the
dump to you? The file is 640K in size. To reproduce the crash I only
need to do 'svnadmin create some-string'.
