BTW: before this starts to go in the wrong direction again, we are  
not talking about "just" FHS but integrating with the underlying  
operating systems conventions. Which may not use FHS but some other  
FS structure.

We are just using the FHS name because we have no better word for it  
and because its the most common layout :-)

What we actually refer to is more like "flat ld.so/Unix lookup  
process", that is, lookup based on the "regular" Unix lookup  
approaches (PATH, LD_LIBRARY_PATH, etc).

PS: FHS doesn't specify ~bin/~lib etc because FHS is concerned about  
system packages, not on user customizations. And system packages  
never install into ~. Well, at least thats how I understand it :-)
