Unless you explicitly set the prefix, it doesn't put things under /usr/local
(or didn't, last time I accidentally used FHS mode), it put things in /usr,
which is reserved for stuff in the base system that is not required to boot
single-user mode. I didn't look much beyond that.
By the way, there is a relatively simple way of using the GNUstep layout in
FHS-compliant mode: install in /opt/GNUstep. FHS explicitly allows installing
add-on software in /opt/{package name}/. Of course, many FHS-compliant Linux
distros don't allocated adequate space for /opt, or don't create it at all, so
this doesn't actually work...
