Here's a better explanation of the lib64 stuff:

Ah, yes, my mistake. I forgot that although it defines lib<qual> rules, it
doesn't specify whether you use lib32 or lib64.
So what I should have said is that practically every other distribution uses lib
for 32-bit libraries and lib64 for 64-bit libraries. On 64-bit systems using
those distros, /lib & /usr/lib still contains the 32-bit versions of the libraries
you have installed (you can install the 64-bit without the 32-bit and vice versa).
So, whatever modifications are done to the patch will need to take that into
account.

How is that against FHS? IIRC it is even mentioned specifically in one of FHS' footnotes.
Gentoo can be multilib, thus it has both /usr/lib32 and /usr/lib64, and /usr/lib as a symlink to
/usr/lib64. Redhat and whatnot are probably not mutlilib, so they do not have this link (nor do all
profiles on Gentoo).

Errr... That goes against the FHS. Red Hat / CentOS, Fedora, SuSE / OpenSUSE, and
Ubuntu / Debian (as well as all the derivates I know of) all have separate lib and
lib64 directories.

At least Gentoo has /usr/lib symlinked to /usr/lib64
