Technically testing for "_64" is insufficient because this is a hard-coded
kludge that will work only on x86_64.  ppc64 and s390x are other common RH/FC
64bit archs.  Less common but in use are sparc64, and arm<something> that have
64bit variants.  Some distros call x86_64 "amd64".  So we're much better off
figuring out where "lib" vs. "lib64" can be read from the userspace environment
in exactly the same manner that spamassassin's build is inheriting it.  This
way we don't have to hard-code every possible 64bit arch name, some of which
may not even exist yet.
