Yes. That is, using RUNPATH instead of RPATH avoids the problem I
mentioned.

The problem is that that requires setting a flag at compile time.

After the fact, one can convert a pre-compiled program with an RPATH
attribute to instead have a RUNPATH attribute by using the chrpath
program.

But neither of these will help a user who wants to use something like
glaze, fips, or apitrace with a pre-compiled program where they don't
have the ability to modify the binary.

I don't know of any mechanism to change the behavior of the linker at
run-time here.
