It works on freefall and thud with this change (and localised trees).
Or is there a problem because the package gets created in the wrong
destination directory?

The only undocumented feature currently being used in this is the way a flag
to pkg_create overrides a previous occurence of the same flag...
i.e. '-f foo -f bar' is equivalent to '-f bar' in this case.
If you prefer, it could set PKG_ARGS= explicitly to the whole string instead
of appending to ${PKG_ARGS}
This workaround with a temporary PLIST is only necessary because pkg_create
does not yet accept relative paths in @srcdir and @cwd commands, I have local
changes to enable this but it is too late to commit them before the deadline
(the changes only affect relative paths).
