Thanks for the reply.

If I'm building a pure 64-bit system, I don't see the problem in compiling to 
/lib and /usr/lib.

The need, if you can call it that, is that only glibc and gcc want to compile 
to /lib64 and /usr/lib64 respectively and just about everything else will 
compile to /usr/lib without the need to add additional ./configure switches.
