The 64-bit libraries are all stored in lib64 directories instead of
the normal lib directories. Thus if the path to the library contains
lib64, it is 64-bit and if not, it is 32-bit, unless it actually is
64-bit and isn't smart enough to know it should be looking in lib64.
You cannot link a 32-bit exe to a 64-bit library and vice-versa. Does
this answer your question?
