What's the error you get there?

Are the brackets needed?
Try:
http://2002:526e:787b:8000:0:5efe:ffab:bacd:82/

I've never tested this, and even the CLI binaries for Windows are not
built with ipv6 support.

Try building TSVN from trunk with ipv6 enabled. You'll also get all the
svn CLI binaries with that build. Then try a checkout with that svn.exe.
If it also fails, you should report it on the Subversion mailing list -
now is the right time before version 1.7 is branched, otherwise such
changes might not get into 1.7...
