PLEASE don't - this will get us into the multilib swamp again.
Consider a run-time check for CPU version that generates an error
if the CPU executing the code doesn't support the additional BATs.

AFAIK, the init-code testing the CPU version would also have to
enable the additional bats, wouldn't it?
