Rear mounted engines really aren't a mitigation as the demonstrated deviation accounts for it. While wingspan is often used for runway width specifications, it's gear track that matters. As MfS states, adjustments to V1, using an increased Vmcg, is the common means to reduce width. Other mitigations are crosswind limits, restrictions on wet/contaminated ops.
