I suggest the following layout:

trunk
--externals
externals
--stlport45
--stlport50
--stlport51

then, in your working copy of trunk, add an svn:externals property,
pointing to e.g. stlport51 and set the name to 'stlport'

the property value would look like this:
http://url/to/repo/externals/stlport51 stlport
