get HPLIP 64-bit clean

Hello,

what we did up to now to get HPLIP built on 64-bit platforms:


1.

Add /usr/lib64 to CUPSSEARCHPATH to get the CUPS backend "hp"
installed under /usr/lib64/cups/backend on 64-bit architectures.
This is the directory where the other CUPS backends are
installed on 64-bit architectures.

Here the diff (too long lines are wrapped here):

 CUPS_BACKEND_PATH="/usr/lib/cups/backend"
------------------------------------------------------------------

I recommend to change backend/hp/configure.in in your next version
accordingly.



2.

Add --libdir=%_libdir to the ./configure call.

%_libdir expands to /usr/lib on 32-bit architectures
and to /usr/lib64 on 64--bit architectures.

I recommend to add at least a note to the installation instructions
regarding 64-bit architectures.
