8 years ago I think documenting should be fine, the reality is that very very very few people go about compiling libv8

It seems that V8 now requires binutils 2.26 to build. The result of this is that one cannot build Ubuntu 14.04 and (anything under 16.04 really).

Possible courses of action:
- Document the dependency on binutils >= 2.26 and go ahead without further actions. Pros: easy for maintaining. Cons: possibly an avalanche of unhappy users.
- Check the version of binutils on build time and decide between using the system version or the Google-provided binary version. Pros: easy for implementation. Cons: depending on a binary provided by a third party.
- Find and patch whatever imposes a dependency on reloc 42. Pros: cleanest solution. Cons: hard.
