Sage and its components, such as Singular, have code which uses libpari. These are the only parts that potentially might need to be recompiled - assuming that the interface has changed. (Which is usually not the case if just a bug was fixed). That is to say, in theory all you need to do it to supply an updated library, and it will be magically picked up - this is one feature of dynamic linking. One way to achieve this kind of flexibility is to install your experimental versions in /usr/local; then Sage's ./configure should be able to pick it up and use. (You'd also need to have Pari's packages installed correctly, as described in Pari online docs, otherwise ./configure would reject it) In practice, something might be broken and you'd need to rebuild the components which don't properly link libpari.
