 * Once ConfigD has set this object up, the Object Daemon will query
 * it to determine the path-special objects for everything in the
 * system.  The idea is that this file hardcodes certain files as
 * having particular special AUTO objects, and then hands off to the
 * game's path-special object (set in GAME_INITD) for everything else
 * that isn't in /usr/common or /usr/System.

 * Currently, only files under a /usr/ directory may have a special
 * AUTO object.  The Kernel Library prevents files under /usr/System
 * from having one, though.
