I hear the "can of worms" alarm ringing :-)
Seriously, I think that putting platform infos into the file name
is bound to cause more trouble than it tries to solve. Fat builds
leave the decision to the linker, which is a good method and avoids
the file name clashes.
I think we should only focus on platforms where fat builds are
uncommon, while at the same time you do have to support multiple
architectures, like e.g. Windows:

Note that on Linux, 32-bit and 64-bit versions are typically placed
into different directory trees:

so I'm not sure whether it's a real problem on Linux. |
