BTW, if you look at GNU Hurd, you'll see that this problem is completely moot 
for this OS: /usr is a symlink to /

And I don't really know how to cleanly upgrade software on machines that have 
/usr on network and / on a local filesystem (nfs-root clients are _much_

c) state clearly in LFS that /usr and /var on network are not supported.
