Python-3.9.1 OpenSUSE 15.1

While ./configure --with-platlibdir=lib64 does work-around the problem on OpenSUSE by putting everything into lib64/, this is not the default behavior. In other words, should Python-3.9.1 be built on OpenSUSE 15.1 without --with-platlibdir=lib64, the behavior described in this bug report occurs.

Not everyone building Python-3.9.1 on OpenSUSE will take the time to research this and end up finding https://bugs.python.org/issue1294959 (as I did after considerable effort).

Intuitively, doesn't one expect configure to work this kind of thing out (and if it can't, warn the user)?
