1) "Applications may use a single subdirectory under /usr/lib." Does
this mean that a subdirectory of /usr/lib should not contain
further/deeper subdirectories?

2) How about /lib and /lib<qual>---are essential libraries supposed to
live directly in them, or is it OK to have /lib/security/pam_access.so
and /lib/xtables/libip6t_ah.so, for example? Are deeper subdirectories
allowed, or should find /lib* -maxdepth 2 -type f be sufficient to list
all essential libraries?

3) I don't see that the FHS explicitly forbids symlinks from within
/{s,}bin and /lib* to /usr/..., but doing so (with the noted exception
of /lib/cpp) would seem to go against the spirit of the whole thing, right?

4) I'm working on a package to check a system for FHS compliance (at
least partially) and to fix issues of non-compliance (at least
partially). Is there already such a thing out there?

Thanks,
  Zach Harris
