Isn't installing architecture-specific binaries into /usr/lib a bit
broken (and against Packaging Guidelines)?
If this is intended to make it possible to have parallel installable
toolchains for different $TRIPLEs, it might be a better idea to
install files for the "host triple" in the current location, and only
add symlinks for thise in the "new" location.
