The patch for making the .rootfs configurable was incomplete: in the python create_symlinks() method the new variable must be expanded explicitly.
Not doing so broke the symlink creation and that led to hard build failures in image types depending on the boot-directdisk.bbclass (like qcow2) because the build_boot_dd() method relied on the symlink.
