[Bug 1490995] [NEW] Firefox 40 ftbfs on powerpc in wily

[Michael Terry]

Public bug reported:

This ftbfs error is preventing 40 from hitting the release pocket.  It's
stuck in proposed right now.

powerpc.firefox_40.0.3%2Bbuild1-0ubuntu1_BUILDING.txt.gz

Seems to an error like so:

/usr/include/c++/5/bits/atomic_base.h:477: undefined reference to `__atomic_compare_exchange_8'
/usr/include/c++/5/bits/atomic_base.h:477: undefined reference to `__atomic_compare_exchange_8'
collect2: error: ld returned 1 exit status
make[6]: *** [TestAtomics] Error 1

Which would make me think a missing -latomic somewhere.  But looking at
the source, it wasn't clear to me how TestAtomics or other tests were
getting passed their LDFLAGS.
