What about starting Dillo with:
 HOME=~/dillo-new dillo

Then there's a script in the source code root directory called
install-dpi-local. Running (from the Dillo source code dir):
 mkdir ~/dillo-new
 HOME=~/dillo-new ./install-dpi-local
should install dpid and plug-ins to the ~/dillo-new/.dillo/dpi
directory where dillo will find them when started in its own
home.

Alternatively you could manually make symlinks (if supported by
your file system) in ~/dillo-new/.dillo/dpi to the "-new" binaries
at their installed locations.
