Ouch. Have you tried to just upgrade your existing servers to 1.6.11? The newer version of dump or hotcopy or svnsync might work without upgrading the old repository. Of course you can upgrade it inplace using svnadmin upgrade. But, if that fails you will need to restore the repo... (I expect) As far as just moving the repository folders from one to the other... I'd say give it a shot. Most of what I have read and heard is that will work if you are staying on the same OS and architecture but has problems if you try to move from one to the other... for example, Linux to Windows... not recommended without using dump/load.
