Ok :)

I am not sure. The only problem I found was with the interpreter path
during runtime.
I can't see why lib32->lib is needed for the STAGING_DIR. Everything
in buildroot seems to depend
on lib and usr/lib and uClibc also uses MULTILIB_DIR="lib". I wouldn't
touch the STAGING_DIR for
now until I hit a real problem.
