I'm not sure what layout you have in mind for your unmerged system:
in any case I guess /bin /lib /sbin will be real directories, but
1) populate /bin /lib /sbin and so with symlinks to their /usr counterpart
for a list of binaries (for example from coreutils and util-linux)
2) rebuild few essential packages (again coreutils, util linux and so)
to revert the move to /usr and ship in /bin /sbin, then populate
/usr/bin and /usr/sbin with symlinks
3) some other way I didn't think about
Could you clarify?
