x86_64 Installation should replace lib64/libgphobos.a

Description

When installing GDC on an x86_64 machine, it installs libgphobos.a both to lib as well as lib64. However, when installing Tango, only lib/libgphobos.a is replaced, not lib64/libgphobos.a. On my system (Debian Etch) and my configuration, the lib64 folder is searched by LD before the lib folder. This has given me a good number of days of raised eyebrows.

Just a note that although you're probably right about the best solution, this may be applicable: http://www.debian.org/doc/debian-policy/ch-opersys.html#s9.1 (see 9.1.1 point 3).

I'm aware of that, but compiling GDC from source generates the lib64/libgphobos.a thingy. So it might be practical to scan for it's existance.

(In [3429]) Install gdc runtime to lib64 if present, closes #976
