Without looking at the code or BDB specs, I think the region size would  
depend on the size of the transaction, and perhaps how many database pages  
it needs to touch; i. e. how many messages and/or tokens are being  
registered.

Are you getting this error on bulk updates, or in "bogofilter -u" mode, or  
on certain regular bogoutil or bogotune runs?

Does the database verify properly (bogoutil --db-verify  
.bogofilter/wordlist.db)?

What else can you share about your setup?
