FEATURES=multilib-strict ensures packages install files into
arch-specific lib directories rather than relying on just "lib/".
Basically it means that, in order to satisfy multilib-strict, packages
must install only to either lib32/ or lib64/.

You can get around this yourself by (temporarily) disabling the
restriction:

FEATURES=-multilib-strict emerge -1a =x11-misc/slop-6.3.46

This has also be logged as bug 629440[1] so you could just wait for it
to be resolved.
