For cross builds
In an environment with relatively old core components (dynamic
loader and glibc) but with up-to-date binutils (perhaps built along
with gcc) libatomic.so gets built in a way such that it is unusable
on the build system. A similar issue was reported in a mail leading
to http://gcc.gnu.org/ml/gcc-pat
