Yes, though NFS over wireless is a fairly silly configuration and network-mounted separate /usr is not likely to be supported at all for much longer. > The solution is to compile the two binaries with static linking, This is against Debian policy. > or move the relevant libraries to /lib. That is probably the thing to do according to current policy. But the OpenSSL libraries total about 7 MB in size and most systems end up with multiple versions installed, so this may fill up / on some systems. > If, on the other hand, these two binaries are not intended to run before > /usr is mounted, then consider moving them to /usr/sbin. The crda binary needs to be available when udev (re)starts. regdbdump probably could go in /usr/sbin, though that doesn't help us.
