firefox failed to build on both arm64 and ppc64el in the toolchain test
rebuild, but only failed on arm64 in a no-change rebuild.

/usr/bin/ld.bfd.real: ../libjs_static.a(linux64.o): ABI version 1 is not 
compatible with ABI version 2 output

This looks to me like a toolchain-related regression.

Do we know why this problem affected the toolchain test rebuild, but not
the no-change test rebuild?  The behavior of dpkg-source in the trusty
build environment should not have changed since March.

(In any case this is not an SRU blocker, because the problem is clearly
not toolchain-triggered.)

There is also a build failure of gcc-4.7 on ppc64el, is that part of the
update?

Reproducible here; but why did this build failure not show up in
http://people.ubuntuwire.org/~wgrant/rebuild-ftbfs-test/test-
rebuild-20150317-updates-trusty.html ?

And fixed in -updates.

Indeed, u-boot is in main only because it's pulled in by jasper on
armhf; we don't appear to use u-boot at all on powerpc.  So this
behavior change (which may be a deliberate change rather than a bug), if
it only affects a single u-boot target on powerpc, doesn't seem to me
like a blocker for the toolchain update.

Please address the firefox/ppc64el and gcc-4.7 questions.
