NSSearchPathForDirectoriesInDomains() supports NSUserRootDomain.  The
environment variable GNUSTEP_USER_ROOT is not really a good way of finding
the NSUserRootDomain; the cross-platform API is a better way of doing it.  
At least if you know that gnustep-base is being used, I recommend using
NSSearchPathForDirectoriesInDomains() to locate resources.
