My solution was Alchemist with the simulacra discoveries; not knowing which of the 5+ guys you're facing should get the save-or-die works way better than invisibility. And most of the feats/discoveries I picked out for Mister E make sense for Alchemists in general.
That said, the discoveries have steep level requirements. Below level 4 just about any class will do; at 7-10 the Mage probably creams an Alchemist. If it's a Mage-heavy campaign from lvl 1 I'd probably go Inquisitor.
Either way, it seems that the least expensive method to get immunity to fatigue is the one lvl dip into Oracle with the Lame curse (1/2 your non-oracle lvls advancing the curse, and thanks to Trinam for pointing that out). But don't feel too bad about the slower movement. Remember, it modifies your base movement, as does Fast Movement, which effectively cancels them both out at Barbarian 1 / Oracle 1, so you suffer no net penalty, but no net benefit either.I don't think the Urban Barbarian gets Fast Movement--I really wish you could just take certain replacement traits, and not whole archetypes.
If you use the Urban Barbarian archetype to use mental skills in combat, you probably don't even need the Oracle lvl dip for fatigue immunity to use Moment of Clarity. Moment of Clarity actually becomes useless as you will be able to use your mental stats freely without that rage power.
If you take both so that you can use other once-per-rage abilities earlier than 17th lvl, however, I believe you are correct that the Urban Barbarian archetype does not get fast movement and you would not get the cancellation that I mentioned.
only problem is that tetori needs a little errata before anyone can play it. which we have been asking for over what, 3 months now?Even though I decided against being a grappling monk, now I'm curious. Why do they need errata to be playable?
The Tetori archetype, as written, gives several bonus feats which do not exist. I believe that is what TheSideKick is referring to. However, if he were to check the FAQ page, he would notice that it has already been errata'd as to which real feats replace these.
Here is the link for the general FAQ page. You can use the links in the top sidebar to navigate to the page specific to Ultimate Combat and look up the details if you'd like.

Actually, the immunity to fatigue was mostly for Spell Sunder, but now that I'm pretty sold on getting the immunity, I'm starting to look at more 1/rage options.

Well, if you are going to get the immunity anyway, I would probably get the Moment of Clarity rage power and drop the Urban Barbarian archetype. But that's me.
