Yep, one "just" has to make such a "newer" GNU / Linux loader a "battery included" in the hosted distribution of our choice. This is doable, and streamlining the rest of the hosted distribution to make use of/ rely on this, we would gain relocatability of such a hosted distribution almost for free (in terms of maintainance burden) as a result --- and many, many pains less, than we currently have (pkg- config/sage-location and whatnot).
