As a long term x86_64-user (nearly right after the first Opterons got
out) I tend to agree.

But the reason why I'm sending this mail is this: What Axel outlined is
afaics a nice concept for a true multibin/multiarch system. Maybe
something like that should have been defined in addition to multilib
years ago. But it wasn't. Maybe (I don't think so, but that doesn't
matter much for the rest of this mail) it's still worth to define
something like that and write a spec for it.

But doing something big like that only in Fedora seem utterly wrong to
me and makes us to much "special" and different from others. If
something like that really is wanted it IMHO should be done in
cooperation with other distros and/or the LSB, as changes like
{/usr,}/{s,}bin64 breaks a lot of expectations and requirements people,
apps and scripts currently have.

Just my 2 cent.
