On a x86_64 Linux workstation, when building from source with ./configure  --prefix=/usr --libdir=/usr/lib64 --enable-ipv6 --with-threads --enable-shared --doc-dir=/usr/doc/python --mandir=/usr/man, almost all library get installed in /usr/lib and not /usr/lib64. And when the python interpreter get launched, it complain about not finding platform dependent libraries and that I should set $PYTHONHOME.
When I apply the patch that I joined with this, it all works well.

This might (or might not) be a duplicate of issue1294959.

I don't think so. lib is hardcoded for any python release, so this issue shouldn't be specific to 3.3.

The patch seems incorrect, as not all OSes or installations use lib64.

This appears to have likely been addressed by bpo-1294959 and/or other issues over the years.
