We'll still need a bootstrap dictionary, although we can distribute the more common varieties (correct-endian vs little-endian, 32 or 64 bit) in binary form.
Does this work when we are not really relocatable? Different platforms still have different default load addresses and memory maps. If this can be solved, it is enough to provide 4 base dictionaries in binary form to support almost all systems.
