After looking to some other packages it seems as it should be solved
 automatically - these paths for i386 and x86_64 are known.
In mailutils case perhaps sufficient should be patch:

Using it and with '--libdir=/usr/lib64' ./configure option I was able build
mailutils also on Fedora 25/x86_64 systems.

I hope the Fedora will have a better init and no binary logs
