Both glibc and glib2 does the same (at least on Fedora). The former
via ./configure (you need to set --slibdir=/lib there), the latter via
the Fedora spec file. FWIW, I want to teach glib2 about --slibdir too
since an increasing number of distros opt to ship the glib2 runtime
libraries in /lib instead of /usr/lib. Maybe udev could do something
similar, I don't know.
