I believe the following way would help you achieve your requirement.

Write a custom pre-commit hook script which checks if the user's comment
consists of the custom format that you have mentioned in the script,
else it should throw an error as you mention.

For Eg : Make a script which forces users to follows the following format.

svn commit -m "[bug_id=XXX] [root_cause=your comment] etc"

Like Ryan said, you may also make it sophisticated to add commit message
by using an editor instead of barely adding them in a line as mentioned
above.

Hope it helps.
