bug#48055: Statically-linked packages fail to build on powerpc64le-linux

[Ludovic Courtès]

As of current master (d904abe0768293b2322dbf355b6e41d94e769d78),
statically-linked packages required by ‘bootstrap-tarballs’ fail to
build on powerpc64le-linux.  For example:

What version of GCC is being used? Perhaps the gcc in make-bootstrap.scm
needs to be told to use 128-bit long longs.

D’oh, for /gnu/store/qr6wzh818417zmswip1nlf6jglyp7fh2-bzip2-1.0.8.drv
for instance, it’s GCC 5.  How come?

Indeed, make-bootstrap.scm refers to ‘gcc-5’ everywhere.  We should
change it to match ‘gcc-final’, no?  (That probably won’t make it into
‘version-1.3.0’ but we can do that on ‘master’.)

Thanks,
Ludo’.

We keep versions that are known to work. I guess we can bump it to
gcc-7, we'll just have to test all the other architectures. Or we can
just bump it for powerpc64le. There's a reason why %guile-static is
still guile-2.0.

Yeah. make-bootstrap is going to come in handy again when we get around
to riscv64. It might just be easier to let whoever ends up working on
that to mess with it then.
