Comment(by bdu...@…):

 Replying to [comment:3 d...@…]:
 > Bruce:  Util-linux-ng-2.18/mount/mount.c: check_special_mountprog(),
 specifically FS_SEARCH_PATH which is defined in configure by
 fs_paths_defaults="/sbin:/sbin/fs.d:/sbin/fs".  While we could include
 /usr/sbin in the mount search path, this would likely not be correct
 unless a filesystem requires other programs that are in /usr, in which
 case they too should be moved to the root filesystem.

 Silly me. I was thinking util-linux and searching in coreutils.

 As far as your point about mounting /usr as cifs, I think that it is the
 same as any remote mount of /usr.  I agree with your comment that any
 mount/umount/mkfs/fsck support program should be in /sbin.
