Why? Just put it the device rather than a LABEL tag...

/dev/hda2   /usr   ext3    defaults        1 2

That should see you right. Every RedHat-based system I've ever built for my 
own use gets the labels removed from /etc/fstab and device names put in 
straight away, because I might want to move stuff around later and can't be 
bothered having to frob labels.
