The Macports system offers a functionality analogous to the one 
described by the OP. In Macports' Guide this functionality is described so:

«Understanding the destroot phase is critical to understanding MacPorts,
  because, unlike some port systems, MacPorts "stages" an installation
  into an intermediate location —not the final file destination.»

Maybe this can help to find a more explicit name than «fake».
