New submission from Matthias Dahl:

Creating a new venv on a multilib system does not install an appropriate link 
from lib to lib64 or the other way around. Currently, venv creates a single lib 
dir, but everything installed with pip within the venv, will be installed to 
lib64/... instead while lib will remain empty. For some third party apps, this 
is confusing.

virtualenv, for example, installs a lib64 symlink to lib automatically. IMHO, 
more correctly would be a lib to lib64 symlink.
