Let me get this right. You are trying to get a specific file/directory
hierarchy and not develop a filesystem like ext3 , reiserfs etc ?

Assuming you are trying to get a particular filesystem hierarchy I
don't see the great difficulty in building one ?
All that matters is the parameters you might pass to the configure script
a simple ./configure --help  should give you the clue.
To avoid the carpal tunnel sydrome, you could write a few scripts or
hack the gentoo portage system to get what you want.
