Actually, there have been plans for doing something like this in Debian for a
while: Let stuff live in /lib/i686-linux-gnu and /lib/x86_64-linux-gnu
(lib32 and lib64 doesn't really scale, once you start considering stuff like
"ia64 can emulate hppa"), and adjust paths and symlinks as fit. It's still a
long way to go, though.
