Yes, a few:

Mike Pilato had a vague recollection that this can be related to the
Native Posix Threads Library (NPTL), see

   http://subversion.tigris.org/project_faq.html#redhat-db

for more. If that turns out to be relevant, then we should probably
update the faq to include this error message too. The message
http://www.contactor.se/~dast/svn/archive-2003-04/0723.shtml makes me
think your problem could be the same.

Also, I googled for

   "Berkeley DB error while opening environment for filesystem" \
   "Invalid argument"

(that is, one search, on two quoted strings), and got quite a few
results.

Please let us know what the answer turns out to be, so we can update
the FAQ.
