Thanks. That was the clue.
The situation was a little more complicated than just forgetting to
have apache configured correctly. I upgraded the versions
of the Debian subversion packages from the testing distribution to the
unstable distribution so that I would use cvsweb.cgi on the archives.
I hadn't noticed that the old version of the libapache2-svn Debian
package had been removed during the upgrade and there was no immediate
effect because the apache2 processes kept running with the old shared
libraries which they still had open.
However, when the weekly cron scripts restarted the apache2 server it
no longer had the svn modules to load.
All fixed now. Thanks.
