Ugh.  I hate libtool.

Here's what I've been able to glean so far.  libtool uses the output of 
gcc -print-search-dirs to populate its library search path.  On our
x86_64-unknown-linux-gnu gcc, this output doesn't include /usr/lib64.
Figuring this was a configuration problem, I rebuilt the compiler.  No
such luck.  The new compiler has the same problem.

This is with gcc 4.1.2.  gcc.  gcc 4.2.1 works fine and correctly includes
/usr/lib64.  I configured both compilers with the same options.

This appears to be a gcc 4.1.2 bug.  Anyone else know anything about this?
Perhaps we should add 4.1.2 to the buggy compilers list with an explanation
that llvm can't be built on multilib machines with it unless /usr/lib links to
/usr/lib64.
