FHS sounds like the FSSTD stuff that went around the linuxen a while back, because debian/redhat/slackware/suse/blah had different layouts for binaries. BSD has its own hierarchy - other people have given the man page name out. As far as I can see it would be a BSD thing to change the BSD fs hierarchy, rather than FreeBSD straying.. (FSSTD also looked like a SYSV/BSD mixture to me when I looked at it last, I'll read the fhs docs later..)
