The /64 suffix in bin/ and lib/ is a symlink to the respective architecture
and simplifies cross-platform build between Sparc and x86.

For whatever reason, /usr/bin/64 isn't present on my Solaris 11.3 (x86-64) VM:

        solaris11$ ls /usr/bin/64
        /usr/bin/64: No such file or directory
        solaris11$ uname -a
        SunOS solaris11 5.11 11.3 i86pc i386 i86pc

The same is true of the directory containing the installed-from-IPS gcc:

        solaris11$ which gcc
        /usr/ccs/bin/gcc
        solaris11$ ls /usr/ccs/bin/64
        /usr/ccs/bin/64: No such file or directory

and Sun/Oracle C:

        solaris11$ which cc
        /opt/developerstudio12.5/bin/cc
        solaris11$ ls /opt/developerstudio12.5/bin/64/cc
        /opt/developerstudio12.5/bin/64/cc: No such file or directory

Sun/Oracle don't appear to have made as vigorous an effort to make this work as OpenCSW have.
