i would solve it in header file. actually i should send the vwm guys a patch.

something like this assuming we use gcc

#ifdef __x86_64__
 #ifndef _VWM_SHARED_MODULES
  #ifdef _VIPER_WIDE
  #define _VWM_SHARED_MODULES      "/usr/lib64/vwm/modules_wide/"
 #else
  #define _VWM_SHARED_MODULES      "/usr/lib64/vwm/modules/"
 #endif
#else
 #ifndef _VWM_SHARED_MODULES
  #ifdef _VIPER_WIDE
  #define _VWM_SHARED_MODULES      "/usr/lib/vwm/modules_wide/"
 #else
  #define _VWM_SHARED_MODULES      "/usr/lib/vwm/modules/"
 #endif
#endif

however i have to check some more docs about gcc macros (specially __i386__
and how we can get some config material at compile time) and test how
it acts under multilib and pure 64bit.
