I just called it GNU FHS to distinguish it from the LF/LSB FHS. Autotools
for example defaults to
libexecdir = ${prefix}/libexec
sharedstatedir = ${prefix}/com
and the LSB FHS (or its interpretations in distros) used or do use
libexecdir = /usr/lib (old FHS 2.3)
sharedstatedir = /var/lib
So there must have been some plan within GNU project(s) when directory
locations were chosen, manpage dirs included :^)
