Although not necessarily what I think to be a good reason, using
org.gnu would also hide 'gnu' from the top most level of a class
directory structure and present less advertising benefits, if any
exist in the first place.
I don't think anyone is going to clobber 'gnu.*' given how it indeed
is not what you'd expect if following the guidelines from Sun and
there is little sense to the effort to change it at this point just as
a company whose name changes probably won't change old code to new
package names either, just speaking from personal experience there.

PS - I saw Tommy Davidson at Charlie Goodnight's yesterday evening and
it was a blast. Hope everyone else had a great weekend.
