  You can share almost everything, but:

   If you're going to share /home renember that UID/GID may be different 
on systems. You will need to try your /etc/passwd up to date

  If you're going to share /var/log -- renember, some programs can write 
logs to different files, or/and in different formats

  Sharing /usr/bin, /bin/ or /sbin makes no sense mostly, because you'll 
run in porblem with libs.

  Sharing /usr/src is ok. :P
