How are you mounting these puppies? Make sure that you have /usr first
in your /etc/fstab and that it contains the subdirectories "src" and
"local".

I'd umount them and mount them like:

mount /dev/hdb12 /usr
mount /dev/hdb11 /usr/local
mount /dev/hdb6 /usr/src

Looks to me like this isn't happening. Also, before you mount /usr
make sure your root directory doesn't have the subdirectories
/usr/local and /usr/src. That way the mounts of those two directories
will fail if you attempt to mount them before you mount /usr.
