Actually, there are upstreams that already do this, and we are the ones
that move things around.

Specifically, one example is coreutils. The ebuild installs everything
in /usr/bin, then we move all of the binaries around.

Also, any time we run gen_usr_ldscript in an ebuild this is going
against upstream installation locations.
