Status in Puredyne liveCD/DVD/USB/HD: Fix Committed

Bug description:
Both in liveUSB and after install, it seems /usr is world-writable (mode 040757) which is very insecure. I've grepped around a bit but I haven't spotted why it's happening but I guess it's not deliberate - is it an artefact of broth?

Also world-writable are /sbin and /etc - none of these should be world-writable, right?
