Linux surely looks in lib64. MacPorts might not be configuring linux to look in lib64 though.

"Linux", in the sense of its dynamic linker, doesn't directly "look in directories" at all. It uses the cache of locations of specific libraries created by ldconfig, by *its* scan of the directories. There's a config file telling ldconfig which directories to scan, which is most likely correctly set up to include all the "usual suspects". But it doesn't do any good if you don't rerun ldconfig after adding libraries.
