Thanks for pointing that out.

Interesting read.  Not an issue I've run into in RHEL (including RHEL6) yet.

I've usually broken these out too.. And was surprised to find that Fedora 16
spits out a warning if you have /usr on it's own partition. The seems to be
something to do with the new systemd, which manages the init scripts.
