In the absence of any wise counsel, I am currently having all of my recipes install into a temporary directory I created on the build host's filesystem. Then, I have one of my recipes create the filesystem image with the contents of that location.
I'm not sure how portable this is going to be. It would be less annoying if I knew of a predefined variable I could use in the recipe (so I don't have to go outside the workspace), but they all seem to be recipe-specific or target-specific.
