is that really the case ? you need to build everything with
LIBDIR=/usr/lib64 ?

i added a libdir32 switch now. should work for everybody.

fernando, i need an answer to the first question though.
does it make sense to you that when jack is built with --mixed it will
also build a 32bit lib ?

this 32bit lib is probably not the same as the normal 32bit lib.
i am not sure how we should behave. stephane made --mixed a configure
option, and even off by default.

it only makes sense on a 64bit system. but it looks like packagers just
use i386 builds as 32bit packages.

so

a) jack x86_64  package conatains a 32bit lib.
b) --mixed will be default, and you will be able to use the normal
              i386 library

i just want that people who build from source have a sort of easy
experiance, and the default on 64bit should be that the 32bit lib is
installed along.
