I don't know if it is possible to span partitions. In ANY O/S.
Why can't you have a normal partitioning scheme?
PArtition RAM
/boot 16m
/swap 32m or RAM, whichever is greater
/tmp 50m
/usr 1 GB and be selective about NOT duplicating your packages.
[I had 6 GB on the same HDD so installed EVERYTHING]
/home Total that you wish to allocate to your users
/ 100m
/opt 100m
/usr/src 100m
/opt 200 m
Hope it helps.
