Volodya, thanks for the svn:externals suggestion. I'll try to learn more about svn:externals so I can form an opinion.
I said I was "out of ideas", but that was a little disingenuous. This is certainly one of many possible implementations, but I urge caution here. We've been using svn:externals for subproject management for a while, against the conventional wisdom. It makes merging even harder, can turn a large difficult-to-merge project into an impossible to merge project. You can end up needing to write tools to wrangle your externals.
