This is also an excellent opportunity to get off of BDB and onto
FSFS. svnadmin create will, by default, as of Subversion 1.2.0,
create FSFS repositories, not BDB repositories, which IMHO will cause
you less grief in the future. Run svnadmin dump on the old server,
bring the dumpfile over to the new server, run svnadmin create and
svnadmin load, and you're done.
