Open terminal (or screen) windows for two subdirectories of the combined tree and in each modify a file which causes configure to be rerun (e.g. Makefile.am if using automake) and then run "make". (Not a contrived example - this is how I work most of the time. I use the combined tree because we have a bootstrap script which sets things up for testing "in tree" which is simpler and less error-prone than having to remember to "make install" on the dependencies of the module you want to test).
