Thanks for the review!

libexec is chosen because the parts placed in there are called by parts of
gnustep-make, e.g. which_lib. The choice about FHS'izing gnustep-make is a bit
arbitrary since upstream hasn't yet properly addressed this, but most parts are
derived from mail exchanges between gnustep-make authors and ogo authors.

datadir instead of libdir is chosen because there is nothing arch-dependent in
there.

This is the "preferred buildroot" which is not a must-buildroot. This issue was
brought up some time ago in the packaging group and consensus was mostly, that
if it works it passes.
