maybe not the directory, but the config file. probably the same reason,
why GDK_PIXBUF_MODULE_FILE and GTK_IM_MODULE_FILE exist. Needed to
execute 32bit libs on amd64 and ia64. while on amd64 the use of uname
allows selection of the correct location, calling uname for 32bit
binaries on ia64 results in i386 as well. The alternative to this patch
is to use the pangohack preload for every program; an envvar looks like
a saner approach.
