Have you thought about an image variant that isn't actually bootable ?
There are
quite a few use cases where having the build not depend on a kernel, but
instead
simply creates a userspace that can be booted via feeding an external
kernel
directly to qemu on the command line.

Not having the kernel decadency turns out to be quite useful when you want
to
build a KVM host and KVM guest kernel with different configurations, in a
single
build.

Cheers,

Bruce
