Have you changed your partition table? When I did this, I first did a cp -a /usr /newusr on a seperate partition. Then I editted fstab and rebooted. The system worked fine but the old usr directory was still there just not visible.
I rebooted using Toms Repair Disk and it showed the "missing" files that were using up space. A few rm -rf commands and next time I booted df and du were alingned.
