Config files are in /etc, libraries are in /usr/lib and /lib, log files are in /var/log (see FHS 2.0) and user files could be anywhere where admin will put them. What about init files... You really think that constantly growing list with FEW HUNDREDS distributions (few tens listed at www.linuxhq.com are just beginning of this list!) will help here ? Who will mantain it ? How often autoconf should be changed to reflect changes in list (every day? twice per day? gosh) I'm not sure if LSB solution will work but this list will not work for sure... BTW init scripts problem is annoying one but libc problems is far more important form autoconf. And thus difference between GNU/Linux and (hypotetic) BSD/Linux or (real) GNU/Hurd ...
