..please please call this 'abi' instead. |

Fine so far. |

This can't work; abi/x86 can't be both a file and a subdir. |
| 26 |
Maybe call them abi/x86 and abi/x86_SYMLINK_LIB_compatibility ? |

(Or x86_lib32, although that is a lot less descriptive.) |

Same here with abi/amd64 being both file and subdir. |
