This use flag, sep-usr, has nothing to do with the /usr merge. It was added as a way to allow a few more people to use separate /usr configurations (this means/ and /usr on separate filesystems) without initramfs, before the council decided that all who have separate /usr should be using an initramfs. Separate /usr does not preclude merging / into /usr. William
