Unfortunately not since I had to massively cut down my gcc work in
recent months.
The work consists of 3 parts, I think:
* A configure option to selectively enable/disable this since
unconditional enabling has found massive opposition in the past.
* Changing the build procedure so shared runtime libraries are
optionally build with RPATHs pointing at the installed locations of
their dependencies.
* Changing the drivers to add RPATHs for the shared runtime libraries
linked.
No idea when I'll get around to this, unfortunately.
