Hi!

"pip install PIL" fails in finding libjpeg, zlib, ... resulting in
multiple "*** LIBNAME support not available".

The reason is that PIL setup.py does not look for libs into
/usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu, where libjpeg, zlib and other are located.
The provided patch solves the issue.

I am using debian sid x86_64, but I am sure this bug affects other people.

Regards,
