I still see no reason to compile fakeroot by hand. The cases in which you actually have to do that are extremely rare.
For host, the fakeroot provided with Scratchbox should be enough. At least in most cases it is. For target, use either the fakeroot which is provided with the toolchain (native toolchains) or build it yourself using the instructions provided in the Scratchbox wiki [1] (foreign toolchains). After you've done, fakeroot can be found in /scratchbox/device_tools and you can install it to the target using [2] (provided your current target is configured and using the correct toolchain). Perhaps you could circumvent the mount problem by commenting out the related parts from build script? Or aliasing/linking them to bin/true? Then you could mount the image from outside Scratchbox and still be able to use the build script.
