Platform: Mac OS X Server 10.4.5
Server: Subversion 1.3.0 with Apache 2.2

Reproduction 1:

1) Get a range of revisions. In my case r13669 - r13678. At least one
revision must depend on a previous revision.

2) Dump the revision set with the following command:

svnadmin dump myrepos --revision 13669:13678 >
svn-myrepos-r13669-r13678.dump

3) create new repository with the following command:

svnadmin create newrepos

4) Load new repository with dump file using the following command:

svnadmin load newrepos < svn-myrepos-r13669-r13678.dump

Immediately after revision 13669 is loaded, the following error will appear
with loading revision 13670.

svnadmin: Revision file lacks trailing newline

Reproduction 2:

1) Get a range of revisions. In my case r13669 - r13678. At least one
revision must depend on a previous revision.

2) Dump the first revision with the following command:

svnadmin dump myrepos --revision 13669 > svn-myrepos-r13669.dump

3) Dump the rest of the revision with the following command:

svnadmin dump myrepos --revision 13670:13678 ‹incremental >
svn-myrepos-r13670-r13678-inc.dump

4) create new repository with the following command:

svnadmin create newrepos

5) Load new repository with dump file using the following command:

svnadmin load newrepos < svn-myrepos-r13669.dump

6) Load the incremental dump file using the following command:

svnadmin load newrepos < svn-myrepos-r13670-r13678-inc.dump

Immediately the following error will appear with loading revision 13670.

svnadmin: Revision file lacks trailing newline

Hope this helps,
