svn_repos_recover2() does remove the environment, however
'svnadmin recover' open the recovered repository to read the
youngest revision and so the environment is recreated.

4.3 recovery doesn't work with 4.2 log files, even using native BDB
tools. Using BDB 4.2:
$ db4.2_recover -h repo/db/
$ ls repo/db
DB_CONFIG format locks nodes strings
changes fs-type log.0000000001 representations transactions
copies lock-tokens log.0000000002 revisions uuids
$ db4.2_archive -h repo/db/
log.0000000001
$ rm repo/db/log.0000000001
Switch to BDB 4.3:
$ /usr/local/bdb43/bin/db_recover -h repo/db
db_recover: Skipping log file repo/db/log.0000000002: historic log version 8
db_recover: repo/db/log.0000000003: log file open failed: No such file or directory
db_recover: PANIC: No such file or directory
db_recover: DB_ENV->log_put: 3: DB_RUNRECOVERY: Fatal error, run database recovery
db_recover: dbenv->close: DB_RUNRECOVERY: Fatal error, run database recovery
$ ls repo/db
DB_CONFIG format locks representations transactions
changes fs-type log.0000000002 revisions uuids
copies lock-tokens nodes strings
$ rm repo/db/log.0000000002
$ /usr/local/bdb43/bin/db_recover -h repo/db
$ ls repo/db
DB_CONFIG format locks representations transactions
changes fs-type log.0000000001 revisions uuids
copies lock-tokens nodes strings
