Why not just take advantage of SysPaths stuff (maybe have to extend it
or clean it up a bit) and try to configure a path that first looks in
the most specific place and then successively more generic locations?
Symlinks just seem annoying.

Do we really need x86/32 and x86/64, or can we just follow a
convention like linux and have amd64 and i386 and be done with it?  I
guess that doesn't give you an obvious place to have common space
unless you have a third directory called x86.  Maybe arm is more
complicated.  How does the kernel deal with it?
