I don't see why the presence of the substring "ld" should lead to that conclusion. If the path is under your control you might just prefix it with 'g' and be done (/usr/lib/gldscripts). > I think the best option is to stick with the original proposal of > /usr/i386-pc-solaris2.11. Why do we need such clutter in /usr?
