Turns out, yes, I can reproduce the segfault without Subversion -
thanks Richard Nelson from IRC for suggesting db4.4_dump:

  [ on i386 ]

  svnadmin create --fs-type=bdb /tmp/repo
  svnlook tree /tmp/repo

  [ scp to an amd64 machine ]

  db4.4_dump -p /tmp/repo/db/changes

The last step segfaults.  db4.4_dump is happy to read a repository
created natively on amd64.

Thanks,
Peter
