Okay, this appears to be caused by:
mount -t tmpfs varcacheyum /var/cache/yum
mount -t tmpfs tmp /tmp
mount -t tmpfs vartmp /var/tmp
Which I took from /usr/share/fedora-release/fedora-live-base.ks. Is
there a newer version of this file somewhere? Looking at
fedora-release.spec there's not much of a clue if the sources are
maintained anywhere else.
They used to be in the livecd-tools package/repo itself and just copied
into fedora-release for some convenience. Now they are in the
spin-kickstarts repo on fedorahosted
