I don't think anyone would expect to be able to to move the apl binary to a system where the correct libraries aren't installed. You can't typically do that with any programs installed from the package managers. After all, that's why package dependencies exist.
However, it does raise the question as to what dependencies the Arch (and other distributions) versions GNU APL use? It's possible that if I install it from the repository I don't get Postgres support for example.
