With (possibly slightly patched) system-tetex you can theoretically
have "any" TeX, so also TeXLive installed on the system.
The only problem is that system-tetex wants to have some specific
files on specific places (based on the assumption that you had gwTeX
installed) and you need to either fake those files or fix
system-tetex.
