Bug#710313: yade: FTBFS on powerpc and sparc: gold not usable yet

Source: yade
Version: 0.97.0-2
Severity: serious
Justification: fails to build from source (but built successfully in the past)

Builds of yade for powerpc and sparc have been failing because gold
still doesn't entirely work on either architecture:

CMake Error at /usr/share/cmake-2.8/Modules/CMakeTestCCompiler.cmake:61 (message):
  The C compiler "/usr/bin/cc" is not able to compile a simple test program.

[...]
  /usr/bin/ld: internal error in set_offset, at ../../gold/output.cc:4622

  collect2: ld returned 1 exit status

Could you please refrain from build-depending on binutils-gold on
those two architectures for now?

Thanks!
