In my experience --with-libdir=/usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu has never solved this
problem for me on Debian based systems like Ubuntu.
I usually just end up creating a symlink to /usr/lib/libXpm.so from
/usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libXpm.so where PHP was expecting to find it and
normally it works out.

Doesn't --with-libdir=/usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu fix this?

That's quite easy to answer. Debian wheezy switched to Multi-Arch which puts
the libraries into /usr/lib/<triplet>/ location. E.g. libXpm.so now resides in:
$ ldconfig -p | grep Xpm
libXpm.so.4 (libc6,x86-64) => /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libXpm.so.4
libXpm.so (libc6,x86-64) => /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libXpm.so
and ld.so is able to find it:
$ cat /etc/ld.so.conf.d/x86_64-linux-gnu.conf
# Multiarch support
/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu
/usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu
That's why we carry patches such as:
http://anonscm.debian.org/gitweb/?p=pkg-
php/php.git;a=blob;f=debian/patches/temporary-path-fixes-for-
multiarch.patch;h=dcca64de3cb6cb3398fa70b5ed878685f66a7acf;hb=refs/heads/master-
wheezy
in our Debian package.
The problem with PHP autoconf script is that it expects to find the library at
specific place (f.e. /usr/lib) and it should just try linking the library
instead (e.g. AC_SEARCH_LIBS). The "test -f" sort of mimick the ldconfig to
"know" where the library should be.
Unfortunatelly it cannot be solved by simple
--with-library=/usr/lib/<tripplet>,
because that would usually break the header files location.
I think that correct way to fix this in vanilla PHP would be to switch to
AC_SEARCH_LIBS when looking for the library.
I might prepare the patch, but I am quite afraid that it's post-5.5 material,
because that might break on oh-so-many places.
