Since nobody replied, I tested this myself. I made a copy of a
repo, and in one PuTTY session ran a script to do svnadmin
hotcopy repeatedly on the repo, and in another PuTTY session ran
another script to do svnadmin verify repeatedly on the same repo.

There seems to be no conflict - neither one ever failed, with
tens of thousands of hotcopies and dozens of verifications.
