Systemd does support setups where /usr is a separate partition, but such
setups require an initramfs which mounts both / and /usr together. I'm
not sure if the systemd package could easily detect whether the setup is
OK or not to warn about it at install time. At least any actual fixes
belong in other packages.

The attached patch to systemd could help. I haven't tried running it at
all, but at least the existing code looks suspicious, so if correct the
patch could fix the same issue.
