/*
Taken from another list:

_Changing_ is a little tricky, but the attached program strips rpaths
from executables (I find it essential for debugging the binutils).
It's endian-dependent, if you want this for x86 you can just change
the occurrences of 'MSB' to 'LSB' and compile (I should really fix
that).
