I do not think Eclipse does anything to prevent you from doing this, it
just leave it up to the Team provider to figure out. Subclipse does not
support this. That being said, you can get the same effect in a way that
is supported by using the svn:externals property. You would have this
checked into a Subversion repository somewhere. It could just be a local
file:// repository if necessary:

MyProject
  |-> src

MyProject would have an svn:externals property that looks like this:

libs svn://svn.foo.org/libs

src would have an svn:externals property that looked something like this:

org.xyz.foo svn://svn.foo.org/module
com.abc.bar svn://svn.bar.com/module

In Subclipse you would then just checkout MyProject and Subversion would
check out all of the pieces and you could use the Team menu to manage all
of it.
