This looks like you have an http proxy which doesn't support all of the WebDAV
methods needed by svn. You can do one of two things:

1) Configure the proxy to allow those methods (see the faq page on the webpage
for the specific list, but I think it is
OPTIONS,REPORT,CHECKOUT,MKACTIVITY,PROPFIND,MERGE)

2) Try checking svn out from port 81 instead of default 80, as this will
bypass most proxies, i.e.:

svn checkout http://svn.collab.net:81/repos/svn/trunk -d subversion
