The bug report is sub-minimal: should include the exact failure mode, at 
a minimum (not to mention your notes above about what caused it and some 
of the notes in the email you'd sent internally - as I've said long ago, 
if you feel the need to write more explanation in the review message, 
that means you didn't put enough in the bug report.  Don't make future 
code archaeologists have to piece the story together :-)

I'm slightly confused why this fix is correct, as the actual path for 
these libraries would appear to be /usr/lib/sparcv9, not /usr/lib/64. 
Are we relying on some side-effect of the file resolution method working 
here?

Why isn't there a similar problem (and fix required) on x86?
