I was just using a regular user, using command line SVN on the server with
SELinux set to permissive.
I was finally able to figure out what was going on after seeing that doing an
svnadmin verify with sudo worked. I guess 1.8 now needs to create files in the
db directory, both a "rev-prop-atomics.shm" file which remains and a temporary
.mutex file. After adjusting permissions to make the db directory writable,
svnadmin verify is working again.

I'd start with:
- How are you accessing the SVN repository? http? svn+ssh? svn?
- What are the ownership and permissions on the /svn/repos/build folder,
the build/db folder, and the contents of the build/db
folder?
- If you are running with SELinux set to Enforcing, try setting it
temporarily to Permissive and see if the issue goes away.
- What user account are you using when trying to svnadmin dump /
svnadmin verify?
