I was also thinking about whether I could get an mpkg preinstall to modify the install location for one of it's containing pkgs.

Scratch that one off the list. It doesn't work unfortunately. I can modify the Info.plist of the sub-pkg with a preflight in the mpkg, but it doesn't get picked up, as they must all get parsed before the preflight runs. It works happily the second time you install the pkg, so I guess I could make an empty pkg that modified another pkg plist and installed it as part of one of the scripts, but that's not a particularly pleasant feeling workaround.
