It happens exactly because of that. The extconf.rb in the root dir will
be invoked once for each supported Ruby interpreter, and it will install
the lib/ files in the arch-specific dirs. And if I am not mistaken,
gem2deb itself will *also* install the files under lib/ to the
arch-independent dir ...

Moving extconf.rb and the C files to an ext/ dir it probably the best
solution, and will work ok for Rubygems as well.

I don't know if there is a sane way to handle this in gem2deb ... the
problem is a broken upstream build system.
