I think that much is universal.

I think Debian went this way for a while, but for the moment
the 32-bit mode is relegated to "emulation" status: 64-bit
libraries go in $prefix/lib, and 32-bit libraries go in
$prefix/emu/ia32-linux/usr/lib. YMMV, I gather this is a
hot-button issue on the "right" mailing lists. I, personally,
consider the existence any 32-bit binaries on an x86_64 machine
to be a bug.
