Compiled programs in C and C++ typically have a lib/ directory and often also a bin/ directory.

On GoboLinux, these will be symlinked into /System/Index such as for ping:

/System/Index/bin/ping
/System/Index/lib/libpng.so.3

Traditional Unix paths are also symlinks to the /System/Index directory structure:

/bin     -> /System/Index/bin
/usr/bin -> /System/Index/bin
/usr/lib -> /System/Index/lib
/etc     -> /System/Settings
