It would be nice if it would be possible using binutils (objcopy ?) to modify the RPATH/RUNPATH of an existing ELF file. More general this might be done as a function to modify arbitrary DT tags in ELF files, see the discussion here: http://sourceware.org/ml/binutils/2008-01/msg00026.html I'm using objcopy 2.17 on Linux on x86, but I think this actually doesn't matter here.
