Why?

-eric Because openSUSE and many other linux distributions put all things to /usr/lib (i586) and /usr/lib64 (x8664) or /usr/lib32. So it is possible to install x86 and x8664 versions at the same time ... (See also http://lists.cs.uiuc.edu/pipermail/llvmdev/2011-July/042068.html and http://llvm.org/bugs/showbug.cgi?id=10836)

It should be better to just use --libdir and make sure that LLVM_LIBDIR is set to the result of the configure option if it's different.
