Hmm, I am tempted to say that we should add a logic to this that just
checks the few debian-style arch tuples we know of, plus fedora-style
lib64, and if any of them exist, we create a lib64 symlink to them. The
table should be relatively short I think. Ugly that we need this, but
maintainable.

With that in place we should allow cross-distro nspawn I figure.
