I don't use the configure script, but I think you can specify the lib dir via --with-lib=lib64. (The same can be done using config.mak or passing parameters directly to make with the lib argument, e.g. make lib=lib64 ...) If I'm reading correctly, that would apply to all packages which were configured via one of the --with-$package=$path options. -- Todd
