Yes, it's intended.  Putting the libraries under *lib*/64/ is a Sun 
convention, and it's time to change it.

There will probably be some further packaging changes before 2.4 is 
released.  Since O/S distributors are starting to package VirtualGL, 
we're going to run into potential conflicts with their releases, so my 
thought is to start putting everything in our "official" packages under 
/opt/VirtualGL and create the symlinks under /usr using alternatives.

In this case, the faker libs would go under /opt/VirtualGL/lib[64][32], 
and I'd simply create a libGL symlink under that same directory, 
eliminating the need for a separate "fakelib" directory altogether.
