On NEXTSTEP the common path was /LocalLibrary/Bundles as far as I remember.
Thus sth like $(GNUSTEP_LOCAL_ROOT)/Library/Bundles/'AppName'/ would make sense
to me...

Well, I am not sure if GS should handle retreiving of bundles in that way. I
really like the fact that I can place bundles where I want to. Perhaps there
could be a method like

- (NSString *)defaultBundlePath;

in NSBundle or so. This would allow you to do sth like 

p = [[NSBundle mainBundle] defaultBundlePath];

to get the proper location of the particular app. But I am not sure
either....;-)

Just my $0.02....

cheers, Phil
