But here I see 4 separate commits into the same repository, fdordbms:
https://fdo.osgeo.org/servlets/Scarab/id/FDO133

What different locations you mean?

I still can not understand the idea behind.
Are you saying this is the solution to synchronize fixes and
changes applied to 2 separate repositories?
AFAIK:
1. Every repository lives its own life and manages its own
history of changes.
2. I'm not sure how it's common to have the same fix for core component
(fdocore) and satellite driver (fdo provider). I'm 99% sure change
submitted to the core are different than changes submitted to the
driver, even if both changesets apply to the same bug report.
IOW, both changesets are exclusive.

IMO, to make it possible to track what kind of changes every
Subversion revision has introduced into the repository.

I run svn log and here is a part of log output.
How can get a clue what revisions should I compare?
For example, if I need to investigate latest changes after
'svn update' broke my sandbox and I'm not able to compile it anymore.
Should I compare with r158, with r155 or with r156?

Do you mean the "FDO159 - Linux part" message?
OK.
