Unable to check out examples

[GoogleCodeExporter]

What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. I'm trying to checkout using the sample at 
http://code.google.com/p/apps-for-android/source/browse/trunk/SpriteMethodTest/s
rc/com/android/spritemethodtest/
2. by clicking on the "Checkout" link of the above page I end up at 
http://code.google.com/p/apps-for-android/source/checkout
3. when attempting to checkout using the instructions on this page,  experience 
an error

What is the expected output? What do you see instead?
The expected outcome would be that when I run the non-member checkout on my 
local machine (svn checkout http://apps-for-android.googlecode.com/svn/trunk/ 
apps-for-android-read-only) I would successfully check out a number of files to 
my machine.

Instead I see this error:
svn: Server sent unexpected return value (502 Bad Gateway) in response to 
PROPFIND request for '/svn/!svn/bln/171'

What version of the product are you using? On what operating system?
svn, version 1.6.15 (r1038135)
Windows 7 Ultimate N, SP1 (64 bit), Version 6.1.7601

Please provide any additional information below.

I've also tried checking out through the Tortoise SVN GUI with similar results, 
i.e. 501 server error.
