decoding error message with svnlook

This command, which used to work, no longer does, and the error 
message is not what I would call descriptive.

%svnlook youngest '/usr/home/svn/repos'
104

Can anyone clue me in on where to start looking to figure out this 
issue?

%ls -la /usr/home/svn/repos/
total 18
drwxr-xr-x  7 svn  svn  512 May 24  2006 .
drwxr-xr-x  6 svn  svn  512 Dec 20 21:12 ..

drwxrwxr-x  2 svn  svn  512 May 24  2006 dav
drwxrwsr-x  5 svn  svn  512 Feb 14 23:19 db

drwxr-xr-x  2 svn  svn  512 Dec 20 21:13 hooks
drwxrwxr-x  2 svn  svn  512 May 24  2006 locks

I can provide any other info you need....

This works for me and the output looks like what you posted, except that my
number matches the most-recently committed revision number in my repository.
There are no adornments or extra text printed out so one could use the
output in a script.  Maybe my results will help you?
  
     $ svnlook help youngest
     youngest: usage: svnlook youngest REPOS_PATH

     Print the youngest revision number.
