A lot depends on what you are starting from.  We are converting from
Visual SourceSafe, so have lots of legacy code jumbled up in a few
archives.  Part of our migration process is to review the archives and
how related different projects are and how you control them.  Then look
at the 1-2-1 svn/trac relationship and group projects accordingly.  My
gut feeling is it is easier to combine repos than split them so go down
the single repo route unless/until your needs dictate otherwise.

If the projects are related such that you need to report across both,
then why not use the same repo and one trac instance?  Or, if it is a
shared library, use the svn:external property from the 'consuming
project' (that does not help with bug tracking specifically, though).

No problems (and I am in no ways a guru, so YMMV as they say)
