Yes, that sounds like a good idea. The directory should be inside
"GNUstep/Library" in your home
does GNUstep/Library exist in your system? And if, is it writeable by your  
user? (not that accidentally it is root owned or such).

In any case the code in GWorkspace was brittle:  
NSSearchPathForDirectoriesInDomains returns a value, but it is not  
guaranteeed to exist and creating a directory won't create its parent.

I added a check, a creation and a new error log. Could you update  
GWorkspace from SVn and try it and see if it works and if it fails, what  
error you do get this time? Thank you.
