On native 64 bits systems there is no point in having a separate /lib
and /lib64 - I certainly don't see any. Debian does provide the
symlinks as I said.

Yes, I guess most people just build for their native system. If not, I
expect they would install into separate prefixes anyway.

A fix would be nice, but I suppose most other bugs on your JD's list
