Would be acceptable to change something like:

"""
add_library_path("/usr/local/lib")
"""

to something similar to:

"""
if (platform.uname()=="SunOS") and (platform.architecture()[0]=="64bits") :
  add_library_path("/usr/local/lib/64")
else :
  add_library_path("/usr/local/lib")
"""

python-dev would consider that change OK?.
