I would use the --libdir option and set the full path that way.  For
your system it sounds like you would want this.

  ./configure --libdir=/usr/lib64

Let me take a moment to note that the current state of multiarch is in
a state of change.  Different distributions do it differently.  The
old FHS method of lib32 and lib64 is not good enough for many reasons.
I prefer the proposed methods under discussion and development here.

At some time in the future the configure line might be this.

  ./configure --libdir=/usr/lib/x86_64-linux
