The error code is SVN_ERR_RA_DAV_REQUEST_FAILED, which doesn't add

I wouldn't resort to that yet. Do you have previous backups of these
revisions? Does «svn checkout %SOURCE_REPO%_at_71» succeed? If either of
these works, you should be able to work around the error in r71.

The standard next step is to look in the server's log for errors. If
you don't have access to it yourself, then you should contact your
hosting provider. If you do this, you hopefully wouldn't have to
discard the first 70 revisions (not to mention that based on the
information available, we can't rule out the possibility that _later_
revisions will have the same error).

As I said, my first recommendation is to talk to your hosting provider.
If you do this, you might skip the middleman and ask them to run
'svnadmin dump --deltas foo' and send you the resulting file. If you
they don't figure it out, _then_ would be the time to start doing
fancier things (wireshark, workarounds using previous backups and/or
'svn checkout', etc).
