I know this is meant to be a vote only thread, but before I cast a binding vote (which will change things from being tied 3-3), I need a bit more information.
I read the Pro Git page on subtrees but still find it confusing how pushing upstream will work for a subtree. We also have the scenario where a non-committer wants to provide a patch back to us so they will still need to fork one or more of the base repositories, which will mean the subtree based repo will not work unless they also make changes in that cloned repo to point to their forked repo. If we promote users to clone the super-repo rather than the individual ones, then we'll be requiring users to deal with more complexity of this type of git set up. Is there much need to maintain a super-repo of the official masters in github, when we could just provide a script to clone/pull all the existing repos into the current directory. TeamCity can also easily be set up to pull from multiple git repositories to perform an build across all projects. I do understand we'll need a script to run the build scripts of each tree and copy the dependencies over to the next tree before running the build script. Because users still need to fork each repository they want to commit to, I think it would make sense to combine some of the repos as Krzysztof suggested. As mentioned by several people I don't think this is one or the other vote. I see no problem someone setting up a subtree based repo if that helps, but I am also pro combining some of the repositories. Looking back now we can definitely say that we did split the repos apart a little too much.
