[snip patch changing SHLIBDIR to LIBDIR]

I think this is a bad idea because all of the .a archives will end up in
/lib. Seeing how those aren't necessary for running binaries in /bin and
/sbin, I'd rather they stay in /usr/lib (which means LIBDIR shouldn't
change if I'm reading the Makefile glue correctly).
