My intent was for a standard "make release" to not have unnecessary bits. There's no point in cdrom/disc2/floppies/boot.flp if we aren't even going to use it. > I can see vendors > taking the contents of an ISO, mounting it using mdconfig, adding more > bit in another dir, then using mkisofs to generate a new ISO with a > different boot method.

Please just leave both cdboot > and boot.flp on both ISOs. >=20 boot.flp is always available on the 1st disc in a set anyway; I don't see a problem copying it from here to the custom 2nd disc.
