I think the problem is simple as this:

For xen:

./configure --prefix=/usr --libdir=/usr/lib64

For qemu: we didn't pass the --libdir when we configure it, so it uses the default one: $PREFIX/lib

I use RPM %configure macro, and it translates to:

+ ./configure --build=x86_64-redhat-linux-gnu --host=x86_64-redhat-linux-gnu --target=x86_64-redhat-linux-gnu --program-prefix= --prefix=/usr --exec-prefix=/usr --bindir=/usr/bin --sbindir=/usr/sbin --sysconfdir=/etc --datadir=/usr/share --includedir=/usr/include --libdir=/usr/lib64 --libexecdir=/usr/libexec --localstatedir=/var --sharedstatedir=/var/lib --mandir=/usr/share/man --infodir=/usr/share/info

There are many other options has the same issue: they may different for qemu and xen.
I'm not sure what is the best way to handle it.

Thanks,
