Looks like I spoke too soon. I tried to build gccgo which failed at the
linking stage, since it turned out libgcc_s was in gccgo/lib64 and not
gccgo/lib. I then tried gcc@4.9 and had a similar failure, the lib files
were split between lib and lib64. Other than this patch (with a when
file-exists), the other idea is to change libdir in gcc.scm:86 to be
lib64 on aarch64.

Unfortunately it looks like it'd cause a full rebuild on core-updates.
I'll test it overnight and see how it goes.
