Hi,

For now, when we want to run x86_64 binaries that have not been
compiled on exherbo, we either need to call the loader by hand or we
need to use patchelf.
It's a real pain for several usecases such as bootstrapping a compiler
(ghc, rust, icedtea...) or running third-party binaries (like the
coverity compiler for example).

If you care a little about that, please go and review
https://galileo.mailstation.de/gerrit/#/c/6008/
If nobody goes against it, I'll merge it next week.

The jenkins failure is because jenkins has a /lib64 symlink which is
another approach to this workaround, which would no longer be
necessary with this patch applied.
Note that /lib64 being blacklisted by exheres-0, other packages still
wouldn't be able to install to this location.

Cheers,
Marc-Antoine
