Most ELF systems can (and regularly do) encode the load-path into the
binaries. If you're using GNU libtool, the -R<path>  (if memory
serves) link-time flag is translated into the appropriate link-time
magic, although I must confess I prefer Mach-O's mechanism.

While it may well be true that in this case Juan doesn't need jails in
order to accomplish his requirements, that isn't to say that a)
they're not useful, and b) existing facilities provide the same
functionality, because they don't.

jails are one of the relatively few features of FreeBSD that Darwin lacks.
