See the "Compatibility Concerns" section of the release notes:
http://subversion.tigris.org/svn_1.4_releasenotes.html
That said, 1.5 is going to be released very, very soon so you may want
to wait another week or two. And whether you go to 1.4 or 1.5, there
is an upgrade to the repository's delta algorithm as compared to 1.3,
which may result in your repository requiring less disk space.
However, to fully realize this improvement, you do need to perform a
dump/load cycle.
