1.3.6 in FreeBSD ports, fails when using subversion

[GoogleCodeExporter]

Checkout latest subversion port from FreeBSD base don 1.8.9 with serf 1.3.9 and 
run:

svn checkout http://googlemock.googlecode.com/svn/trunk@470 
/usr/home/colde/repos/gmock--revision 470 --non-interactive --ignore-externals

This fails on my FreeBSD 9 machine with:
svn: E000064: Unable to connect to a repository at URL 
'http://googlemock.googlecode.com/svn/trunk'
svn: E000064: Error running context: Host is down

If i am building the subversion17 port instead with neon, it seems to work 
correctly.

And the host was up at that time?

If you can reproduce this constantly, can you provide us with a network trace 
(wireshark,tcpdump) of this action?

Yes, i verified with curl. Also, i got another FreeBSD user to check, and it 
was the same on his install.

It's possible this issue is related to this server having both a ipv4 and ipv6 
address. Serf will normally try those one by one, but you have encountered a 
specific status code (host unreachable - 64) that doesn't trigger the 'try next 
address' mechanism.

Can you build serf from source with attached patch applied and let us know the 
results?

For those who are interested. I am on FreeBSD, should I check too? Though, I am 
behind a proxy.
