Thanks! :)

Strange that this is different.  Maybe due to temporary package skew?

I don't think it's worth hardcoding this, we can just pick up the fix
sometime after step 3) there.  Currently, the use of pkg-config for biarch
builds in Debian is approximately nil, so having an extra -L option in there
in the short term when someone manages to pull it off is IMHO no big deal.

(Besides, the list of triplets that you'd have to hard-code for
biarch/triarch is substantial, since a lot more than just amd64/i386 is
affected.)
