taglib-devel wants to check out its files from the KDE project's  
anonymous Subversion repository, which seems not to be working for  
you. This has been reported before, with no solution listed so far:

http://trac.macports.org/ticket/18583

If you can figure out the solution let us know.

What happens if you type

svn ls svn://anonsvn.kde.org/home/kde/trunk/kdesupport

in the terminal? If it's working, it should list the contents of that  
directory.

I should note that fetching taglib-devel works fine for me, so maybe  
there is a problem using the svn protocol (port 3690) on your network.
