"the transition" might be necessary to support x86_64.
Ie most of user space is 32-bit (using /lib) but some apps
will run substantially better as native x86_64 binaries.
Moving to lib32 and lib64 makes sense in that environment.

Hypothetically, it shouldn't matter for ia64 if /lib
is an alias for /lib64. Or do I see that wrong?
I thought ia64 already has from /lib32-like thing to
support ia32 binaries but I'm not the tool chain expert.
