Thanks, I studied math not in English, that's why I didn't know :)
I made a simple tests and it seems to work nicely. However, I'm not sure whether it will work with more complicated cases like copying, deleting, etc.

From some time ago I remember that previous versions of SVN stored "almost" always a HEAD revision as fulltext, and others as reverse deltas.(except the case when a delta is bigger that fulltext) Was this behavior changed in SVN 1.7? I've looked at the notes about BDB and they don't differ almost at all from SVN 1.4's ones. Of course, I could look into the code more carefully, but my hope was that it wouldn't be a big deal to give me a short answer, if possible.
