It's very simple to comclude where this directory should be.
First of all, FreeBSD stores data of installed software that
does not belong to the OS itself in /usr/local subtrees. So
if you check /usr/local/share/WindowMaker/, you found it. :-)

You can add them locally (to your user account) in ~/GNUstep/
as an alternative.
