In concordance with the discussion on the Jira issue, the TSC rejected this RFC in the meeting on 2024-07-25.

The RFC was rejected not because supporting other loaders is not desirable, but because other loaders should not have to depend on the cmake build system. Since the RFC has been written, the Rust loader and the Microkit loader demonstrate how to do this, so the main goal of the RFC has been achieved without specific build system hooks.
