The FHS states that yes this is the standard, if assuming the 
implementation is compliant. See
 
http://www.pathname.com/fhs/pub/fhs-2.3.html#USRLIBLTQUALGTALTERNATEFORMATLIBRARI 

of the http://www.pathname.com/fhs/ doc for the full story, but the 
short is, /lib<qual> and /usr/lib<qual> are the standard places for 
664bit systems where in this case, <qual> = 64

produce
