So, looking at the current FHS-document it seems that LFS is mostly in
sync, except for the use of the /usr/lib64 symlink.

The reason that LFS uses the /usr/lib64 symlink is because many packages assume that they should use /usr/lib64. LFS is not a multilib system, but many packages make that assumption. For us, everything should go in /usr/lib (or /lib). The symlinks make that happen.

It would be really nice if the libtool included in many packages didn't bother to say that the library appears to be moved. That's quite irritating.
