If you can only connect to https:// svn repositories but not http://
ones using your svn client, then you most certainly *do* have a proxy
somewhere between you and the 'open internet'.  It may not be on your
computer or LAN, but likely your ISP.  Your symptoms are the absolute
classic symptoms of having a proxy that forbids or doesn't understand
WebDAV http methods;  that's why the svn client hangs on http:// svn
URLs but the web browser doesn't (which only does a simple GET
request).

Seems like the obvious workaround is to do a non-anonymous https://
checkout of the pymunk repository.  Either that, or figure out how to
avoid the proxy (or fix it.)
