That's the /usr/lib paragraph. The $libdir paragraph is
"4.8.1.�Purpose
/usr/lib<qual> performs the same role as /usr/lib for an alternate
binary format, except that the symbolic links /usr/lib<qual>/sendmail
and /usr/lib<qual>/X11 are not required. [28]"
i.e. "equivalent to /usr/lib, no additional restrictions."
