In my honest opinion, lib should be fine as an interim solution until this is
resolved.

I would think a noarch would be the "more correct" solution, as it's just for
the interim, and isn't "%{_lib}" always /usr/lib for noarch builds? I maybe
wrong, but both upstream should resolve it themselves and I would think this
would be the lowest maintenance solution for you.
