[tlbuild] Mac OS X: ld: absolute address to symbol ___stdoutp not supported

[Mojca Miklavec]

Hi,

I'm sorry, this is most likely similar to:
    https://trac.macports.org/ticket/39052

That is: clang not really being suitable for compiling for PPC.

I guess this can indeed be ignored completely, I'll switch to a
different compiler.
