If you don't need a jail to spoof uname, as others posted, you can installworld into a chroot and build everything you want there using Joerg's spiffy pbulk. That's what I'm doing on pkgbox now; I can hand you my somewhat terse notes if you want. It would be relatively easy to set up the configuration you're talking about.
