For me I would have one lib (and repository):

mylib/
   include/
   src/
     backend1/
     backend2/
   build/

But really it's up to you - as long as the structure is clearly 
organised and folks can find their way around I don't believe anyone 
should beat you up too much about it.  In short use the right 
organisation for the job in hand.

HTH, John.
