Oracle UEK8 returns ENOEXEC for the Node SEA because its PT_NOTE is larger than 4 MB. The npm launcher, the legacy launcher, and install.sh now print the RHCK, p_filesz, and from-source hint, and the installer smoke test leaves the executable's stderr attached.

ApprovabilityVerdict: Not approved Macroscope's review found this PR not approvable — This is a focused CLI error-reporting fix with limited production impact. However, the installer currently presents the UEK8 diagnosis for any Linux smoke-test failure, including unrelated failures, which can mislead users and warrants human attention. Notes:

Do not show the UEK8 hint for every smoke-test failure.
The installer should still reject any staged executable whose --version command exits nonzero. That pre-completion validation is intentional.
The Linux branch reports the UEK8 ENOEXEC cause for unrelated failures. Capture the status and show the hint only for status 126. Treat status 126 as the repository’s execution-failure indicator, not definitive proof of UEK8, because an executable can also return 126 itself. Include the status in the generic failure and update the status-1 test assertion.

Run the UEK8 hint test only on Linux.
On macOS, the test selects the darwin archive, while install.sh emits the UEK8 hint only for the Linux platform. The test therefore can receive only the generic failure and fail its Linux-specific assertions.
