I have been trying to help someone who does not have write access to the
GCC tree get read-only access to the GCC SVN repository through a
firewall.

Now, I can get through the firewall but I check things out via svn+ssh,
using my account on gcc.gnu.org.  And there seem to be lots of ssh proxy
tricks out there (corkscrew, etc) to help, but all of these proxy
methods seem to be based on ssh.  The standard anonymous checkout for
GCC is:

        svn co svn://gcc.gnu.org/svn/gcc/trunk gcc

It does not use ssh.  And as far as I can tell a user without write
permission (without an account on gcc.gnu.org) doesn't have a way to use
ssh to access the GCC tree.  Is that correct?  So how does he or she do
a checkout if the above method doesn't work due to a firewall?  Are they
just out of luck?
