I think the whole lib<qual> thing should be avoided and we should nack
it for any new ports.  Ideally, we should also try to get ourselves out
of the hole we've dug ourselves into.

I don't see anybody being against relaxing the requirement for
/usr/local/lib<qual> to exist, so we're presumably blocked on more
seconds.
