More specifically, it's PT_INTERP section of the ELF header in every binary 
that hardcodes the full path to our own dynamic linker/loader (i.e. mentioned 
libc-nativesdk). I wish it would support the use of $ORIGIN similar to RPATH 
and RUNPATH for libraries, but I bet there are all kinds of corner cases with 
that... :)
