That's also my fear, I'm not familiar with distros back-port policy
but eyeballing ubuntu package changelog[1], it seems to be mostly
build fixes.

Given that there's no visible way to fix the relocation issue, I
wonder if jit shouldn't be disabled for arm64 until either the
RuntimeDyld fix is merged or the switch to JITLink is done. Disabling
jit tuple deforming may be enough but I'm not confident the issue
won't happen in a different part.
