Looks like.

Is maybe some firewall blocking the outgoing connection recently?

That's ok. Are there other SecurityPolicy definitions there?

That URL is only useful for a xmlrpc client, if you go there with a

I checked http://wiki.python.de/BadContent and it seems to fetch updates 
(it is running 1.5.5a, rather old code like yours), so the problem seems 
to sit somewhere between moinmaster and your wiki server.
