svnadmin load should be able to handle that. Simply dump both
repositories to files with "svnadmin dump", and then load those two
files into your new third repo with "svnadmin load".

That, however, "svnadmin load" will not do. You'll have to use a
third-party tool for that. I believe there are at least two scripts
that have been written to do that. "reposmerge" is one...

That's the "--parent-dir" argument to "svnadmin load".
