Well, if it stores the absolute pathname to each shared library,
this doesn't exactly have the same effect. AFAIK, rpath stores an
ordered list of directories, then this list is used to search for
shared libraries. This means that if versions 1 and 2 of library A
are stored in directories /usr/lib and /usr/local/lib respectively
and if versions 1 and 2 of library B are stored in directories
/usr/local/lib and /usr/lib respectively, it is not possible to
use version 2 of libraries 1 and 2 (unless the soname is different
from version 1).
