Error "svn: Can't open file '/svn/mpfr/db/txn-current-lock': Permission denied"

After a repository upgrade with svn version 1.5.1 (r32289) a few days
ago, we now get the following error when committing:

svn: Can't open file '/svn/mpfr/db/txn-current-lock': Permission denied

No problems for read operations.

The DB FS type is FSFS, and we have:

The other repositories on the server do not have these txn-*
files/directory. Any idea?

I notice that the "current" file hasn't been updated by the upgrade.
It contains:

7052 un bv

while the documentation[*] says:

The format of the "current" file is:

 * Format 3 and above: a single line of the form
   "<youngest-revision>\n" giving the youngest revision for the
   repository.

 * Format 2 and below: a single line of the form "<youngest-revision>
   <next-node-id> <next-copy-id>\n" giving the youngest revision, the
   next unique node-ID, and the next unique copy-ID for the
   repository.

There is no pre-commit hook.

I suspect you have a hook script that isn't aware of the file format changes in 1.5.1.  I had this problem with a hook script we use to check the size of transactions.  Try temporarily disabling your commit hooks and see if it starts working.
