There only appears to be one thread waiting for a BDB lock. So either
you have uncovered a bug that allows a single thread to deadlock (I
guess it's possible, but I think it's unlikely) or some other process
has crashed and left locks in the database. That other process could
have been one of the Apache processes (check your Apache logs, and
your syslog in case the OOM killer got it) or it could have been some
other process altogether, svnadmin, svnlook, svnserve, svn using
ra_local.

You didn't say what your tests do, so it's going to be hard for us to
identify which process crashed :) You are really the only one who can
do that.

This thread is the only one waiting for the database.
