In theory, there is a better way. Try the following and report where it doesn't work and we'll see if we can figure out how to make it work.
First, run ant in the repo. This should generate all of the JS files. There should be Flash Builder project files in the repo in each frameworks/projects folder and frameworks/js/FlexJS/projects folders. Create a new workspace, add the nightly as a Flex SDK, import all of the projects. You will probably have to fix up the projects to use the nightly SDK. Now add/create a test application. The test application should select the nightly as its SDK. From the Project menu, choose Properties, then choose Flex Build Path from the left-side list and make sure library path is shown on the right. Expand the SDK entry in the list. Click on each SWC other than playerglobal.swc and choose Remove to remove it from the list. Click on Add Project and add each of the projects it needs. At this point, changing an AS file in any project should result in a new SWF with the changes. However, for me, changes to Core.swc cause FB to hang and I have to restart FB (sometimes twice) to get back to working again. That might be a good reason to make SWC changes in a SWC other than Core. To build the JS version, you should be able to run the FlexJS (JS CompC) on the project with the changes. This should generate a fresh set of JS files. Double-check to make sure they are going in the correct folder. Then, from the Run menu, choose External Tools then External Tools Configuration. Make a copy of FlexJS (FalconJX Debug Build). In that copy, in the arguments before the -fb option, add sdk-js-lib=<path to generated-source folder> for each of the SWCs you need in your app. Then, when you run that config, it should use the newly generated-source folders.
