That is a distro specific policy, whcih varies from autoconf policy.
So to make it follow the distro policy yuou must supply an explicit
arg to configure,  --libdir=/usr/lib64

As an example, RPM does this automatically if you use the %configure macro,
but if you're doing builds by hand you must add whatever args are needed
