I know this has been beaten to death, but I want to try answering 
differently.  What you mention above isn't so much a solution in poky as 
simply using the normal PREMIRRORS mechanism.  The own-mirrors patch is 
a wrapper around this logic to make it a 2 line local.conf change.  In 
your example, this would become:
INHERIT += "own-mirrors"
SOURCE_MIRROR_URL = "file:///opt/poky/sources"

(Or http://localhost:8080 and do a python -m SimpleHTTPServer 8080 & in 
/opt/poky/sources).
