Are these directories still located under each modules directory or are 
they now unique overall superbuild?

As I already explained, using a unique src directory is very handy for:
- easily find all the sources cloned by superbuild,
- easily modify the sources when bugs occur,
- easily push these bug fixes,
- easily pull all the sources with a simple script.
I can help with this, as my local superbuild is modified for this setup.

I also submitted a bug report to CMake team about cmake using fit fetch 
instead of git pull when sources are already cloned. Meanwhile, I use a 
global pull script.

Cheers,
Valentin
