I don't think TortoiseSVN is capable of accessing a BDB repository (since the required modules are not included in the default compilation settings - maybe you can get lucky if you find a really old version).

I believe contemporary versions include BDB support for backwards compatibility. But it sounds like your setup is due for some updates.
