Have you checked out roscpp development version inside your workspace?
You can try to go to the src folder, remove from the .rosinstall all entries related to ros_comm, remove the corresponding folders from the src folder manually, then execute:
roslocate info ros_comm | wstool merge -
wstool update ros_comm
Afterwards return to the catkin_make_isolated command from the install instructions (don't execute it in src, but the root of the workspace). I'm not sure if this is the best way to go, but you can give it a try. This way you have the released packages of everything, except for packages in ros_comm, for which you are on the hydro-devel branch, you might of course need updates for other packages as well, but hopefully not for most of them (that you don't want to hack in).
Since ros_comm contains pretty basic packages, you probably cannot manage with an overlay, as suggested for packages you want to develop here: http://answers.ros.org/question/109656/maintaining-a-ros-source-install-add-packages-update-release/
