I do not know the structure for Berkley DBs.
If you were using FS, then the log messages are kept in plaintext under
the db/revprops folder in the repository structure. Each revision has a
single file there, containing the revision's properties.
Among those you can find svn:author, svn:date and svn:log.

Good luck!
