Exactly. Jeff, chown everything in the repository to yourself, and run
recovery and checkout as yourself using file://, and let us know how it
goes. There is no reason to run svnserve as root. It's an unneccessay
security risk. You should run every tool that touches the repository as
the same user (unless you really know what you are doing).
