That's created by the NSPathUtitilites code on process startup (so they are 
available for the program to store things in), controlled by the 
GNUSTEP_CREATE_LIBRARY_PATH setting in GNUstep.conf
See the GNUstep-base reference documentation for details of the config file 
values used by the base library.

The Defaults directory is used by the defaults system and controlled by 
GNUSTEP_USER_DEFAULTS_DIR ... so any program will create that when it sets any 
default.
The Services directory is used for pastreboard services (the Services menu in 
the GUI), and I guess may be created by GUI apps and by the make_services tool.

Online documentation is in 
http://www.gnustep.org/resources/documentation/Developer/Base/Reference/index.html
 (I'm not sure how old that is, but none of this stuff has changed recently so 
it's probably all current).
