Exactly why I did it ... after yet *ANOTHER* complaint from a user on the
mailing list about being unable to use GNUstep because of the issue of the
default installation not working. I know that all the user has to do is read
the INSTALL document or any of the installation HOWTOs etc and source
GNUstep.sh, but the fact is that most people just don't bother. IMO we need a
system that just works.

I strongly disagree about leaving it until a release ... how can people try it
out, decide what they think, offer changes etc if they never see it until it's
officially released? The point about svn trunk is for people to try out new
things.
I don't really mind the change being reverted if you like (the main point being
to get people to actually do something about the problem), but I think it might
make more sense to revert to the old behavior *after* everyone has had a chance
to consider the idea and let me know that I'm an idiot, rather than assuming
I'm an idiot in advance.
