It turns out that Go 1.4.3's cgo (the Go interface to C code) doesn't
work with Binutils > 2.27:

https://github.com/golang/go/issues/16906

We are still able to use Go 1.4.3 to bootstrap later versions of Go if
we disable cgo, as I did in 04a95a4fd66.

Probably this is due to a version change in GCC or the toolchain -- this
part of go is designed to interoperate with GCC in some way.  Try fixing
the version of the toolchain to something older, perhaps?
