Comment(by cscott):

 Note that this move conforms to the FHS as I read it:
   http://tldp.org/LDP/Linux-Filesystem-Hierarchy/html/root.html

 Since the pilgrim patch:
 http://dev.laptop.org/git?p=projects/pilgrim;a=commitdiff;h=cc3bf640473157ea45104d60ffb604a30e08d5cf
 creates a symlink for /root, and the standard explicitly leaves it up to
 us where root's home directory 'really' lives.
