Yes, you can just update the meson.build script in subprojects/libfoo/ and
rebuild. 

What I've been doing is (in a clean directory) unpacking the source, then
unpacking my wrap on top of that and hacking on it until I have it working, then
copy my changes back into a clean source tree to build the tarball. I think this
is more convenient since it allows me to just work on one wrap at a time without
dealing with mesa-demos or any other wraps.

If you're talking about add_project_arguments then a patch landed a few days
ago: https://github.com/mesonbuild/meson/pull/1580, and will work if using meson
from git (like we are currently).
