Or even something like --with-multilibformat='lib64' versus

Well, lets think a bit. We want to add the 64bit specific directories for linux.

Why just Linux? Isn't this essentially the same issue that the multi-ABI commercial UNIXes have?

Seems like it to me. For example, Solaris puts 64-bit libraries in a 'sparcv9' subdirectory. The 'sparcv7' directory is used for libraries built for older SPARC processor types. Libraries optimized for 32-bit Ultrasparc are put in the traditional location.
