Since you're using autotools, this is largely not your problem. Instead
of hard-coding a path like /var/lib, you should be using the
$localstatedir variable from autotools. The system administrator or
packager will then choose appropriate directories by passing e.g.
./configure --sysconfdir=/etc/gsequencer \
--localstatedir=/var/lib/gsequencer
That way things wind up in the right place even on non-Linux systems.

It depends on your security model (I have not looked closely). My
wild-ass-guess would be in a mode-600 subdirectory of $sysconfdir.

That'd be my personal preference since then emacs will know that it's an
XML file.
