[vserver] Path Weirdness With yum and tmpfs

I'm trying to put:
/vservers/.pkg/*/yum/cache
/vservers/.pkg/*/yum/lib
on tmpfs because my tiny vserver has a CF for a disk, so minimizing
writes is pretty important. But something odd is happening. When I run
yum update, the files end up in the underlying cache directory on disk,
rather than in the tmpfs mounted on that path.

I'm _guessing_ that might be due to the yum-hack.conf. Can anyone assess
that guess and perhaps suggest a fix/workaround?

TIA.
