Fix sh4-unknown-linux-gnu sample.
The issue with this sample is that the sh4-* targets in GCC do not implement __builtin_trap() function. Starting with release 5.1, GCC inserts abort() calls where NULL pointers are dereferenced. The elf/dl-conflict.c in glibc is one such place: it calls elf_machine_rela with NULL `sym' pointer. This causes an undefined `abort' symbol to appear in the object file and as a result, pulls in some files during the linking of the dynamic loader that are not supposed to. Eventually, it results in link error due to multiple definitions of _itoa and some other symbols. The right fix would be to implement __builtin_trap() for sh4 in GCC. A workaround would be adding -fno-delete-null-pointer-checks to CFLAGS-dl-conflict.c in elf/Makefile. Until either of these happens, though, pin the GCC version to 4.9.3 - the last that did not generate `abort' calls. Note that the version where GCC started to generate `abort' calls is apparently different for different architectures; the issue in [1] was reported against GCC 4.9.
