It seems like CMAKE_INSTALL_LIBDIR does the right thing there also by default, can you confirm? If that is indeed the case, it would be good to amend the commit description to not be "lib"-specific, and say something like "CMAKE_INSTALL_LIBDIR ensures installations match the conventional placement of libraries - /usr/local/lib on some systems, /usr/local/li64 on others. Otherwise folks might think they need to override this when they probably don't. Thanks!
