What about mips O32, N32, N64 abis?
/lib, /lib32 and /lib64?
What about i386 knetbsd and linux?
The multiarch /arch-os/ path is already present in the toolchain for
many things including include files and libs and works for all cases
of multiarch in a clean way. The lib{,32,64} subdirs are different on
every arch, confusing and insuffient for the bsd case.
