[Ganglia-developers] [RFT]: build: linux 64bit biarch support (v0)

[Carlo M. A. B. <ca...@sa...>]

The following proposed patch for stable 3.1, partially reverts the configure
routine that tried to guess the libdir directory by assuming biarch rules from
fedora linux (breaking all amd64 BSD and x64 Solaris) and overriding the
libdir parameter passed at configure time (breaking fedora linux ppc64).

It restores the functionality needed to allow setting libdir while still using
libdir at compile time to setup the path for modules and as an intermediate
solution until removing the need to hardcode the module path in the
configuration is backported from trunk.
