My take is that this should not be an architecture specific setting, so if it is desirable and works on existing x86_64, PPC64 and S390 platforms then it should also be desirable and work for Aarch64. If some distribution differs for a given architecture then that distribution can rebuild with OVERRIDE_LIBPATH as appropriate.

Thanks,
David
