Hi,

FHS is a Linux 'standard', not a *NIX standard.  Most *NIX variants use 
something vaguely similar, but none use FHS.  For example, on *BSD, GNUstep's 
decision to put GNUstep.conf in /etc/GNUstep/ is incorrect - this location 
should only be used for stuff that is in the base system.  Third-party 
configuration stuff should go in /usr/local/etc.
very much correct. In several environments it could be /opt/GNUstep ... "GNU" is not unix... thus FHS is not Unix either, not universally at least.
