Well, ideally I'd like to have /usr mounted as ro to all the client
boxes, with root_squash making sure that even as root on a client, I
can't do a rm -rf /usr.
Also, umounting /usr and writing to the local one on / wouldn't be
great.
I'm sure that there's a nicer way to do it than having to wipe the local
one after each change. Otherwise, I might as well keep an independant
/usr for each client, which kinda defeats the purpose of what I'm trying
to do ...
