OK. If that's all, 'make it easy to build SDK and URE from scratch independently from OOo', than I am fully with you. It should be possible to check out just a needed subset of modules and build them. Without the need to go through the whole tree just because you need 'instsetoo_native'. But, that's only the first of four paragraphs Stephan wrote concerning 'at build time'.

Yes, I only presented my personal POV. For users and developers of OOo
there wouldn't be much they could get from separated builds. That's
clearly something for people that don't want to build OOo. So for me the
ability to build and work on URE and ODK separately while still keeping
the OOo build environment would be sufficient. Stephan's mileage may
vary of course.

One idea behind the separation of URE and OOo is that you have one URE installed on your machine and potentially many other applications that use it (OOo, an ODF toolkit in whatever form, etc.). Sine URE and OOo are potentially deployed into different locations (e.g., /opt/openoffice/ure vs. /opt/openoffice2.2), this means that the OOo-specific code will no longer find the general URE code "right next to it." And that would also probably have implications on the build environment, as I detailed in my original post.

Making URE more easily buildable inside the current OOo build environment is one possible (first) step. The complete picture would go further, however, and that is where Rüdiger's concerns would kick in.
