I got pretty far commenting out binutils-gold and adding back in gcc:lib
and the substitute snippets. Then I started failing tests requiring the
linker, so it looks like I'll actually have to troubleshoot
binutils-gold.

I thought about trying gccgo in place of go-1.4 for the bootstrap, but
I'm pretty sure I'd still need binutils-gold.
