What I have done is create a directory "/usr/local/gnu" which contains all
of the ``normal'' sort of subdirectories like bin, lib, etc, ...
I then create a link from /usr/gnu to /usr/local/gnu/bin.  This sort of make
a /usr/gnu directory in the same vein as /usr/ucb.  It also helps me keep
all the GNU stuff togeather.  To give a copy to a friend, I just tar off
/usr/local/gnu and I'm done with it.

Ah the perils of setting up filesystems....
