I assume that some of the scripts in initscripts are part of the
definition of $remote_fs and only use commands in /usr when it is safe
to do so, and thus got this correct.  Some of these scripts are 'half
of $remote_fs', and can not depend on themselves. :)

And this I believe is a correct assumtion.  If I am wrong, please
provide a concrete example.  :)
