/usrmove and path ordering

Dear developers,

Now that the /usrmove changes have landed in the F-17 branch, should
the ordering of directories in PATH be changed? /usr/bin should appear
before /bin and /usr/sbin before /sbin.

Right now $(which a-binary) would report that all /usr/... binaries
are located in /bin and /sbin instead; while it is mostly just
cosmetic, some programs (e.g. pure-gen) use the heuristic of computing
their default installation prefix based on the location of another
binary, and get confused if that prefix is empty.

Is this a reasonable change? I'll file a bug report if that's the case.

Thanks,
