I have inherited a REALLY old SVN server that was mismanaged for years.
They were using WebDAV successfully for so long they never noticed any

dump on it to move it to a new server that I built that has all the latest
SVN bits

I am sure that switching to a FSFS repository data store with your new
system is advisable.

;t know if the BDB database format is
fully compatible between platforms. (fsfs is fully compatible, but that
doesn't help you now)
