Are you sure that you want this?  This will require that packages that
install shared libraries into those directories have shlibs files, call
ldconfig, and so forth.  Aren't those directories frequently used in
arch-independent packages that are installed for cross-building and hence
shouldn't provide shlibs and ldconfig calls for the host operating system?
