If you are in such a hurry, I'd use mkcd to build the binary rpm cds and
mkisofs for the source discs.

Hm, it would get *quite* messy, I think, because a src.rpm most often
not only contains the .tar.bz2 file + .spec file for rpm, but very often
also patches, "addons" and such.  This would mean, that you'd get a
gazillion of directories.
