The current Xen capabilities XML data chooses between /usr/lib/xen/bin/qemu-dm and /usr/lib64/xen/bin/qemu-dm based on whether the guest arch is 64 bit. This is incorrect because the path is actually determined based on the host OS. Only x86_64 uses /usr/lib64, all other arches just use /usr/lib - even on ia64. So this patch changes the logic so that /usr/lib64 is only used if we see an x86_64 guest present - this implies host is x86_64 and that all guests whether 32 or 64bit shoudl use /usr/lib64
Actually Debian uses /usr/lib too on all architectures (in fact I'm not sure which other Linux systems use /usr/lib64 - it's very peculiar to Red Hat).
However Debian symlinks /usr/lib64 -> /usr/lib, presumably for compatibility with whoever thought using /usr/lib64 was a good idea in the first place. Unix managed to transition from 16 to 32 bits without adding '*32' everywhere, I'm not sure why this time is different ...
