>/usr/lib/compat is the better place because it contains OLD, not current,
libs.

What about files which already exist in /usr/lib/compat directory with same
name but new date? Move them to /usr/lib/aout (may be to /usr/lib/compat/aout
?) or simly remove them? libg++.so.3.0 is such case.

Of course. During installation I not checked "compat" but after installation
I run install.sh from compat1x compat21 compat22 directories of 3.0-RELEASE
distribution (in this order). Have order the meaning?
