That part seems like kind of a nonstarter.  People may already rely on it
being relocatable.  Also, if cube is still relocatable, it could still
get broken post-installation.

I spent some time awhile ago on fixing this via new-style SQL functions
[1].  That didn't get finished for reasons explained in the thread,
but I think that's probably a more productive direction to go in.
