That sounds like a mess. Why not propley use multiarch paths for multi-ABI stuff? I'd seriously hope those will repesent different archs? > Beside the way, on the multiarch system like Debian, user may install > libraries under /usr/lib by hand. That's users on crack though, for that it's /usr/local and always was. You also get into the same situation with people overwriting packages' /usr/lib (or even installing in /usr/local), so this argument is moot.
