svnadmin load command hangs

[P Tai <pt...@yahoo.com>]

The following is the sequence of commands:
---------------------------------------
cd /home/svn
svnadmin dump /var/svnroot/myrepos > myrepos.dump
mkdir testrepos
svnadmin create testrepos/newrepos
svnadmin load testrepos/newrepos < myrepos.dump
<<< Started new transaction, based on original revision 1
     * adding path : branches ... done.
     * adding path : tags ... done.
     * adding path : trunk ... done.
----------------------------------------

Then the command just hangs. Can anyone help?

svnadmin verify /var/svnroot/myrepos completes successfully (listing all revisions).

Interestingly I was able to load the dump file created by cvs2svn.

I am using subversion-1.4.0.
