No, it's an issue with your setup, not something on scipy's side.

You are behind a proxy blocking REPORT requests.  See this for details:

http://www.sipfoundry.org/tools/svn-tips.html

which says:

What does 'REPORT request failed' mean?

When I try to check out a subversion repository

   > svn co http://scm.sipfoundry.org/rep/project/main project

I get an error like:

svn: REPORT request failed on '/rep/project/!svn/vcc/default'
svn: REPORT of '/rep/project/!svn/vcc/default': 400 Bad Request
(http://scm.sipfoundry.org)

You are behind a web proxy that is not passing the WebDAV methods that
subversion uses. You can work around the problem by using SSL to hide what
you're doing from the proxy:

   > svn co https://scm.sipfoundry.org/rep/project/main project
