None. Both standards cover different aspects. The GNU standards aim at
configuration portability, the FHS is the smallest common denominator that many
*nix vendors (almost) agree to. 

So, in this case it's a matter of "switching on brains" and "taking the plunge"
of drawing responsible decisions.

As far as, sharedstatedir is concerned, this is rarely used, because it's beyond
the scope of most packages, and beyond the reponsibility of vendors ("shared
statedir", architecture independent data, it is supposed to be shared between
different architectures and OSes). Implementing it definitely is a very tough
task, and therefore probably not covered by the FHS.
