Looks like you changed your bdb version to an incompatible one.
You need svn compiled against the old bdb version, so that you can dump
your repository.
1. Backup your repository!
2. Find out what version of bdb you were using before.
3. Use emerge -C to remove all other versions of bdb except that one
from your system. Then use emerge with that version number to get
exactly that version of bdb on the system, if it's not still there.
You want to guarantee that svn uses the right one. Only giving it one
choice is the easy way to do that.
4. emerge -p svn. If this shows svn trying to upgrade your bdb, you'll
need to emerge --nodeps svn. (Manually emerge non-bdb dependencies
if necessary.) If not, you can just emerge svn.
5. Now you have a svn compatible with your repository. So svnadmin
dump.
6. Choose whether you want to continue using bdb, or switch to fsfs.
7. emerge db to get the newer bdb back, if applicable
8. Re-emerge svn, if you want it compiled against the newer bdb.
9. svnadmin create and svnadmin load to get your repository back.
