This will not work for multiple reasons. The static PIE object will not
have a dynamic symbol table, so no interposition takes place. It also
uses relocations which are not supported in ELF shared objects.
glibc 2.30 will provide a clearer diagnostic for this, rejecting loading
the object outright.
Thanks,
