There are legitimate uses for RPATH. The ebtable package sets the ebtables 
executable RPATH to /lib/ebtables to load its libeb*.so extensions. The sudo 
package add RPATH to /usr/libexec/sudo in visudo. There may be more. How 
should we handle these cases? Maybe add a per-package, per-executable RPATH 
setting?
