Perhaps, but that isn't the right test; one wants to check for a
policy, not the existence of a directory -- especially a directory
which might have been incorrectly created.  In that case, one needs to
remove the '64' as well, because that's for a particular architecture.
Or do GNU/Linux distributions have this same behavior on sparc64?

I'm not aware of a way to check (in a robust manner) for such a
policy.
