Ah, yes ... sorry.  I've actually ended up using a homebrew script for 
parsing svn dump files and feeding git-fast-import for a number of 
reasons, so I'm a bit rusty with svnimport, and never looked at multiple 
projects in one repo anyway.  (One of which was that svnimport wasn't 
creating a correct import actually - some files and directories were 
simply missing).

I guess you've tried including projectFoo in the url?  Other than that, 
perhaps git-svn may have better luck?
