In Tru64 Unix, the clustering system invented a context-dependent symbolic link. This was added in Tru64 5.0. Since Tru64 Unix is proprietary, the installer can force the /usr tree into the root file system. I do know in Tru64 Unix 4.x you could place /usr in a separate file system.
As I posted earlier:
Compaq Tru64 UNIX V5.1B (Rev. 2650); Tue Sep 2 17:51:37 BST 2003

I guess the installer didn't force it to be in the same filesystem on our box. Or our sysadmin hacked it later for some reason :)
