[issue14791] setup.py only adds /prefix/lib, not /prefix/lib64

No.
setup.py still contains several hardcoded paths with "lib" (e.g. "/usr/local/lib", "/usr/lib/termcap").

There are also some places in setup.py which check both "lib64" and "lib", but such checks can possibly return incorrect results on multilib systems (when a library happens to be available for another ABI (32-bit vs 64-bit) but not ABI for which Python is being built).
