Thanks Hyrum and Olivier,
Sorry, but I should have mentioned earlier that I actually tried a dump of the original repo and load into a freshly created (with 1.6) repo. This produced the same result, the command completed immediately and produced no output.
Any other thoughts?
Thanks again

If you are upgrading from 1.4, the repository won't be sharded, which
is a perquisite for FSFS packing. You'll need to shard the
repository, either by copying it using svnsync or using the (not-quite-
supported) fsfs-reshard.py script.
Once you've got a sharded 1.6 repository, packing it should then
consolidate all completed shards.
