Right, beside the point that it uses the lib-confoguration provided by
multilib. This makes sense for targets which can easily use symbolic
links. But for win32 targets, which don't have symlink support in
general (beside cygwin), this isn't a good solution. The
standard-behavior of mingw32 (x86) and cygwin (x86) is, that libraries
are put into /lib. So what I meant here as bogus is, that this disable
option doesn't disable all multilib configuration, and this was the
hole-thing I am talking about.
