[poky] Write-protect $DL_DIR

In my quest for a well-packaged Poky that I can distribute
to my customers, I'd like to give them a pre-populated $DL_DIR
tree (also in response to those customers that have little or
no net access). This would likely be in /opt/XYZ and practice
would dictate that it be read-only.
Sadly, this doesn't work. When I try to build Poky with a
read-only $DL_DIR, it simply hangs on every 'fetch' step.
Note: I could avoid this problem (although I think it's a
bug even if it should never be experienced) by being able
to easily provide source mirrors for the packages. So far,
I've not figured out how to do this; I'd like to add my
own mirror lists, similar to those in meta/classes/poky.bbclass
Would this be a way forward? If so, how?
Thanks for any ideas
