We'd have to copy the current libraries to that location, or at least into /tmp. These are *HOST* binaries after all. And the hacking to do that might be, ummmm, difficult at best. We have an invariant in the system right now that one libX.so.N is binary compatible with all other libX.so.N (or at the very least the new one installed is upwardly compatible with the old one).
