I think having ld-linux-x86-64.so.2 in /lib64 is mandated by the LSB (as well as having ld-lsb-x86-64.so.3, which I have never seen used). But we want to have everything else in /lib, so we do the necessary changes (case $(uname -m) ... in gcc, or libc_cv_slibdir=/lib in glibc) in order to have everything in /lib, and just keep the mandatory file as a symlink in /lib64. Having /lib64 symlinked to /lib would mean that /lib64 and /lib have the same content. Here /lib64 is almost empty, and this is what we want... This is possible only if /lib64 is a real directory. > > And I remember, that I had some issues in the past, because gcc searches > some libs in /lib64 or vice versa.
