Find out for yourself. See how Set-User-ID mode and Set-Group-ID mode are reported from the ls(1) man page. Then, look at your $PATH, and see how many directories in the /usr hierarchy contain executables. Run ls(1) with long mode output, and see for yourself what programs you would break when you create your Frankensystem.
