Symbolic link. My source is in /var/newsrc so

# cd /usr
# mv src src.keep
# ln -s /var/newsrc src

Works fine. I've got a large /var filesystem. 

Anyway, symbolic links let you rearrange everything on a case by case
basis.

I think that sick people in Ankh-Morpork generally go to a vet.  It's
generally a better bet. There's more pressure on a vet to get it right.

they lose a cow.  -- (Terry Pratchett, alt.fan.pratchett)
