After running the build-xetex script I get fontspec.sty inside the
build-directory/texmf/tex/xelatex/fontspec. But where would I find
the executable xelatex?
Second question: is it a viable solution to just replace the old bin
files with the newly build ones or is there a better way to install
them (just as you would not replace the old fontspec.sty but rather
place the new fontspec in a some texmf-place)

(sorry if my question should show little understanding of what is
going on but I am doing my first steps in the world of svn checkout,
compiling from source, etc.)
