I just read on the list yesterday that Subversion doesn't work yet
with BDB 4.4; you should be able to get it to work with 4.3.

But you should first answer the question: Why do you want BDB at all?
My recommendation is to skip it entirely and use FSFS repositories.
If you already have BDB repositories, svnadmin dump them using
Subversion 1.1.1, upgrade to Subversion 1.2.3, and svnadmin load them
into new FSFS repositories.
