Are they under two different prefixes, like:
/master/dira/dirb/dirc/make.include
/source/dira/dirb/dirc/make.include
?? if so you can use:
make -I /source -I /master
include dira/dirb/dirc/make.include
Again, without full specifications it's hard to advise you.

It will _work_, exactly as you've written it. However, it obviously
doesn't do anything close to what you're looking for (just describe what
that makefile does to yourself in English and you'll see...)

Sorry, I didn't understand what you said. I don't see any problem with
the directory not existing.
Please check the docs for how $(wildcard ...) works.
