To which degree this actually makes a difference would be a good
question but the convention-so-far has been that distribution provided
stuff goes into / or /usr and that /usr/local can be used as seen fit by
whoever controls/ administrates a particular installation. If the
packaged vdev is supposed to become an integral part of the OS/
distribution, it should honour the existing convention unless there's a
good reason for not doing this.
