Any chance of https access to the anonsvn repository?
I'm bumping into the firewall here with these problems:

me@host:~/src/ethereal$ svn checkout http://anonsvn.ethereal.com/ethereal/trunk ethereal
svn: REPORT request failed on '/ethereal/!svn/vcc/default'
svn: REPORT of '/ethereal/!svn/vcc/default': 400 Bad Request (http://anonsvn.ethereal.com)

Googling the subject suggested SSL access as an option, but:

me@host:~/src/ethereal$ svn checkout https://anonsvn.ethereal.com/ethereal/trunk ethereal
svn: PROPFIND request failed on '/ethereal/trunk'
svn: PROPFIND of '/ethereal/trunk': Could not create SSL connection through proxy server (https://anonsvn.ethereal.com)

using svn, version 1.1.3 (r12730)
ra_dav handles 'https' schema
/etc/subversion/servers, section [global], http-proxy-host and http-proxy-port are set.
(sidenote: subversion could use the environment variable http_proxy as yet
another source of proxy information)

Another possibility is that there is a proxy in the path and it does not support the required methods. I had to get my ISP to change their squid config to get svn working.

The complete list of required methods is listed in the subversion FAQ.
