We can't possibly have a /opt policy, since we aren't officially (i.e. as
per the policy manual) using FHS yet. I personally don't see why we can't
use /opt for large subsystems such as GNUstep, /usr/lib/GNUstep is wrong,
/usr/GNUstep is wrong, /opt/GNUstep is really the only place GNUstep can be
put both without stepping on the OPENstep standards, the FHS, or both.
