Actually, since ulm pointed out in another thread that the council has not mandated that we support separate /usr without an initramfs, I am re-considering this. In linux-only ebuilds, if we install everything in /usr as gregkh and others have suggested, we can remove this call from them. Also, for the other ebuilds that have this call, we can eventually disable the function on Linux systems. William
