There has been a clear distinction between 32 bit and 64 bit libraries with 11G R2. We had a case here where a C++ application compiled using 32 bit option , looks for lib32 folder and libraries inside it ,especially libclntsh.so. Before 11GR2, we used to share the server ORACLE_HOME path to this application for accessing the libraries. This server installation which is 64 bit, do have lib32 directory and 32 bit libraries and a lib diredtory which have 64 bit libraries as well. This was changed in 11GR2 where 64 bit installation comes only with 64 bit libraries. I have to download Oracle 32 bit client in this case for the application to work.
