I think you can do it with the convert extension (use a recent checkout
of hg). You'd use it with your current mercurial repo as source and
using a filter to take the relevant files/dirs in each case. That takes
the relevant changesets for each subrepo and rewrites history to avoid
unrelated changesets.

I haven't used it myself, but it should work.
