the FHS doesn't define things
BTW: before this starts to go in the wrong direction again, we are
not talking about "just" FHS but integrating with the underlying
operating systems conventions. Which may not use FHS but some other
FS structure.
We are just using the FHS name because we have no better word for it
and because its the most common layout :-)
What we actually refer to is more like "flat ld.so/Unix lookup
process", that is, lookup based on the "regular" Unix lookup
approaches (PATH, LD_LIBRARY_PATH, etc).
Greets,

PS: FHS doesn't specify ~bin/~lib etc because FHS is concerned about
system packages, not on user customizations. And system packages
never install into ~. Well, at least thats how I understand it :-)
