Yes, it should respect `lib64` - we've just tested on both Arch and Fedora.
On Arch, `lib64` is just a symlink to `lib`, and this patch places things
in `lib`. On Fedora, it places things in `lib64`. Just noticed that we do
have to include a built-in CMake module for it to work properly, though.
I'll add that in v2 along with the commit message change.

Thank you!
