The trick is that the FHS doesn't demand that /usr/foo is physically different from /foo. We are compliant in this are because of the symlink, which ensures that whereever the FHS says that a filename is /usr/foo, you can get the file by using /usr/foo. That you can also access it with /foo directly doesn't bother the FHS in the least. My main concerns is that the FHS does deliberately not include /libexec, while the GNU standard mandates that.

PCMCIA support is important, it needs to be added to OSKit.
