Changes to are in place for using /libexec/ld-elf32.so.1 and mods to rtld-elf exist to support 32-bit libraries. Only, I see that the suggestions to use /lib/i386 and /usr/lib/i386 have not been incorporated. They are still /lib32 and /usr/lib32. What is the final decision on this? I am looking to go beyond bleeding edge here and don't want to end up doing things that are not the approved way. Sean
