However, only a complete clean & compile cycle is supported on OpenWRT. This
requires you to tar your sources into the OpenWRT local download repository

I like OpenWrt (that's the only correct spelling BTW) too much to
refrain from commenting here. In fact, doing what you describe is
usually very easy.
$ make package/<packagename>/{clean,prepare} V=s
$ cd build_dir/target-*/<packagename>-*
$ <do whatever mods you want to try>
$ cd -
$ make package/<packagename>/compile V=s
