| /lib<qual> : Alternate format essential shared libraries (optional)
| Purpose
|
| There may be one or more variants of the /lib directory on systems which 
support more than one binary format requiring separate libraries. [14]
| Requirements
|
| If one or more of these directories exist, the requirements for their 
contents are the same as the normal /lib directory, except that /lib<qual>/cpp 
is not required. [15]
