After I dump, to I do anything to the (possibly corrupted)
repository?

If I delete it, it complains that it cannot find files. If I don't
delet it, I get this:

$ svnadmin load /opt/svn/repos/ < ./svn_dump
<<< Started new transaction, based on original revision 1
      * adding path : 4D ... done.
svnadmin: File already exists: filesystem '/opt/svn/repos/db',
transaction '553-2', path 'EVA'
      * adding path : EVA ...$

   -k.
