Well, if you're building the 32-bit lib it would go in /usr/local/lib/ or if you're building the 64-bit lib it would go in /usr/local/lib64

Example....

[egreshko at meimei lib64]$ rpm -qa | grep libthai
libthai-0.1.14-6.fc18.x86_64
libthai-0.1.14-6.fc18.i686

[egreshko at meimei /]$ file lib/libthai.so.0.1.6
lib/libthai.so.0.1.6: ELF 32-bit LSB shared object, Intel 80386, version 1 (SYSV), dynamically linked, BuildID[sha1]=0x8b3b836abc76ff27cbc72ddf05e31b4eec431b26, stripped
[egreshko at meimei /]$ file lib64/libthai.so.0.1.6
lib64/libthai.so.0.1.6: ELF 64-bit LSB shared object, x86-64, version 1 (SYSV), dynamically linked, BuildID[sha1]=0x5c24ffeb8fe5136970c1b1f42ef2bd9ce3ede746, stripped
