I've seen people able to do a merge from one repos with svn protocol
into a working copy of a different repos working copy. It looks like this
case is explicitly checked since one is http and the other is svn.
If it's only a few files you could try svn cat. Or check out a working
copy of the http repos and use svn_load_dirs.pl to handle the merge
into you're local one.
Alternatively svk or SVN::Mirror might be able to help, but svn_load_dirs.pl
is the recommended way to handle vendor branches:

about 2/3 of the way down.
