I can confirm that the version of ubuntu-vm-builder in hardy-updates,
0.4-0ubuntu0.1, doesn't handle the situation where /tmp is mounted
nodev,nosuid, and that the version in hardy-proposed, 0.4-0ubuntu0.4,
with the new "--in-place" option is able to build a vm with /tmp so
mounted.

(As an aside, TMPDIR as set in the host is passed along to the guest
during the build, so if the guest's filesystem doesn't have the path
that TMPDIR is set to in the host (e.g. "/data" or "$HOME/tmp/") then
bits of the installation fail miserably. I know ubuntu-vm-builder has
been replaced with a python version, but it might be worth checking if
this issue still lurks there.)
