Yes :-)

I would rather say that, by default, System is /usr and Local is /usr/local,
and source packages install by default into Local. Distributions will
override
that for their own packages.
If System/Local domains are the same (/usr/local), then we would ignore /usr,
so resources from system packages in /usr would not be found. Really, if
System packages are in /usr, the System domain should be available as /usr.
This means resources/frameworks/bundles/etc. in System (/usr) would be
available/visibile to -make, -base and to any other gnustep stuff (such
as openapp or whatever).
