I suggest one source file and several binary packages. This is because 
(a) the top-level svn directory has a project file listing the other
sub-modules, so it can be built together,
(b) releases are tagged in the tags/ directory as "wagon-1.0-beta-2" etc
with all the modules together (at least after alpha-7, where there are
actually separate tags).

If they ever start making separate releases it is not too hard to break up
the source package.

The binary packages should probably be separated, for instance a user could
wish to install only one of the two ssh providers, or none of them.
