Using 127.0.0.1 in your local testcode (or making sure the server process and network also work properly on ipv6) might help here. Declaring a specific host-/dns-name for Subversion, resolving to only the addresses really listening is usually the best approach... like it would be for a normal website.

Does JavaHL reverse the start/end revisions when calling the API? Sending a range of 0:HEAD to the server could explain the difference. That said, I'd assume you would have spotted that by now. I cannot imagine what else it could be, but I have also not tried this new ISVNRemote API.
