I still haven't seen proof that your repository became corrupted. You
didn't let 'svnadmin recover' finish. A trick I use to see how far
along that process is, is to run '/usr/sbin/lsof | log.00*'. During
recovery, there are typically two logfiles opened -- the youngest one,
and the one currently being processed by recovery. When you see those
getting "closer together" (based on the numeric portions of their
names), you're generally close to being finished with the recovery.
