I don't believe this was the case with my corruption. I've been using
the Debian packages on all my systems. Remote access to the
repositories (the only way they are accessed) is via mod_dav_svn and
Apache2. The apache version install installed on the server is Debian's
apache2-mpm-worker v2.0.46-2. While I haven't specifically checked the
linking of the binary files, the Depends for the package are:

   libapr0 (>= 2.0.46), libc6 (>= 2.3.1-1), libdb4.1, libexpat1 (>=
   1.95.6), libgdbmg1, libssl0.9.7, zlib1g (>= 1:1.1.4), apache2-common
   (= 2.0.46-2)
   
As you can see, it's dependant on libdb4.1 (Debian's BDB v4.1 package).

(little more investigation)

The system does have libdb4.0 installed on it though, and there is a
somewhat round-a-bout dependancy from apache2-mpm-worker to libdb4.0 (so
I may be wrong):

   apache2-mpm-worker
   - apache2-common
    - openssl
     - perl
      - libdb4.0

So, is this the root of the problem?
