I think there isn't going to be an elegant solution to this one.  The 
best idea I have so far is to try and use 
http://www.freedesktop.org/standards/basedir-spec/basedir-spec-0.6.html 
where possible, and then think of as sane as possible values for the 
others.  Other then that it might have to turn into an ugly #if'd out 
piece of code for each platform, but hopefully this can be avoided.
