 The only way to do that would be to eliminate the zombie replicant
 mechanism entirely, since it can't detect the distinction between being
 unable to find a symbol due to ABI mismatch vs due to a required lib for
 the replicant not being in an accessible location for the host (i.e.
 SoundPlay replicant without liblayout.so in ~/config/lib). Since I'd
 rather not go that far without some consensus, closing as invalid. Thanks
 for the input!
