Fink's Shlibs policy has been updated to handle 64bit libraries and  
'fat' libraries.

Effective immediately, any fink package which installs shared 64bit  
or 'fat' libraries should use a modified form of the Shlibs field in  
which either "64" or "32-64", as appropriate, has been appended to  
the end of each Shlibs entry with the corresponding type of library.

It is also allowed to append "32" to the Shlibs entry of an ordinary  
32bit library, but (for backwards-compatibility) this is not required.

The Packaging Manual has been updated to reflect this slight change  
of policy, and the 'fink validate' command will correctly detect the  
new form in the forthcoming fink 0.26.0 release.
