Title:
  add powerpc target for ppc64el

Status in binutils package in Ubuntu:
  Fix Released
Status in binutils source package in Trusty:
  Fix Committed

Bug description:
  I would like to have a backport of patch available in Debian BTS
  #760395 in Ubuntu 14.04.

  Reference: https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=760395
  Patch: https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?msg=5;filename=binutils-2.24.51.20140818.patch;att=1;bug=760395
  Motivation: With this patch integrated, some package build would work properly, as the linker shows that ppc64el has shared objects. 

  After a binutil with this patch made available, I would like to ask to
  build the following packages:

  * Slurm
  * Munge
  * environment-modules (Source: modules)

  Thanks
