Responding late to this. This change won't, in the future, affect mips |
| 18 |
multilib, will it? Remember, we've got three ABIs to juggle, and this proposed |
| 19 |
change looks like it might clobber one of those ABIs. |

o32 - old 32-bit, goes into /lib or /usr/lib. |
| 22 |
n32 - hybrid 32-bit/64-bit (like x32), goes into /lib32 or /usr/lib32. |
| 23 |
n64 - full 64-bit, goes into /lib64 or /usr/lib64 |
| 24 |
|
| 25 |
This basically follows the layout that old IRIX used to use when you had |
| 26 |
binaries/libs from all three ABIs mixed into the same root. |
