Andreas, Honestly, I don't understand what you are proposing. The codebase is already broken out much as you propose and with SCons, at least, it quite easy to just build or rebuild a portion.
I don't think many people compile the Mapnik codebase very frequently, and I don't find it any slower now than in the past.
