Hmm right. I did not see that libmoar.so is in its own /usr/lib/moar/ 
directory. The comment I made a year ago [1] (and forgot since then :-p ) 
still stands. 

Multi-arch is then not important, yet. Let's worry about this later when we 
have a more clear picture of what multiarch means for rakudo and moarvm...
(don't hold your breath)

this is one of the case where cme relies a little bit too much on semantic: 
duplicated info like this is not seen: without any other modif, you have to 
force a save so that cme will write back a new file.

Come to think of it, there may be a way to detect this ... 

Sorry about the confusion.

All the best
