This would also be an interesting option; actually, I think things were like
that a long time ago... It would make sense to keep everything related to
the management of the store in /gnu, so that the complete store could
be copied easily.
Maybe we should make the new convention that localstatedit should default to
/gnu; this cannot be against GNU standards, at least not in spirit :-)
