That would be a great idea, although it's really a different issue. 5.0 is a legacy version, and I don't really have hope that they care about fixing it. Later versions of Mathematica seem to cope with the new X .org-style directories. Still, Mmca is an expensive product, and I expect many installations of 5.0 are in use even now (mine is). Also, we're discussing the addition of two symlinks (!) here, which is IMHO well worth the increased compatibility with past versions of Debian/Ubuntu.
