  the bitbake manual lists "fakeroot" as a possible variable flag,
along with things like "nostamp", "noexec" and so on.  but i don't see
fakeroot being used as a flag anywhere in the source tree.  has that
changed?

No, fakeroot is still used - it is a flag for functions indicating fakeroot 
(these days pseudo) should be enabled when the function is executed.
