yes something like that with an export in front
export LDFLAGS ?= -L/usr/lib/$(shell dpkg-architecture -qDEB_HOST_MULTIARCH)

usually pkg-config[1] is the solution for this sort of things. but I
check the lzo package and it doesn not provide the .pc file. Maybe I
should fill a but for thoses library without .pc files.
nevertheless the multiarch support is completly Debian specific for now...
So to my opinion, the pkg-config is the solution and when there is no
pkg-config support of third party libraries.
Allow to use the LDFLAGS, CFLAGS for fine tuning.
I hope it answer you question :)
See you
Frederic
