I have most often loaded gnu stuff in the /usr/local subdirectory, but
when the full gnu environment becomes available, this will no longer
be appropriate.  I suggest that most gnu stuff be loaded at /usr/bin,
/usr/lib, etc. when using gnu itself, with /usr/local reserved for 
other stuff.  -David-
