It is not necessary to place the whole Pike installation in your Roxen's server location. Simply symlink roxen/server/bin/roxen to your Pike binary, e.g.:
ln -s /usr/local/pike/7.6.15/bin/pike /usr/local/roxen/server-4.0.158/bin/roxen
Be aware that Roxen's different versions are usually restricted to certain Pike versions.
You can also select a pike to use by setting the environment variable *PIKE*:
$ PIKE=/usr/local/bin/pike
$ export PIKE
$ ./start
If you have multiple server versions inside a single roxen directory, you can also place a pike symlink in <roxenhome>/local/bin instead of <roxenhome>/<serverversion>/bin

When building pike straight from CVS : A common reason is, that you must have a (old) pike binary in the path when you build pike since some of the source files are generated by pike programs.
Compiling from a source dist (such as provided by Xenofarm) is supported without having a prior installed pike.
