[PATCH 1/2, libgo] Add reflection support to gccgo for ppc64, ppc64le in gcc 4.9

[Lynn A. Boger]

Would it be possible to add this patch to the gcc 4.9 branch as is? It 
provides most of the basic support for reflection on ppc64 and ppc64le, 
which does not work at all currently.  Once I get the 
libgo/go/reflect/all_test.go working I can add the patch for the fixes 
and enable the testcase for these goarch values in a later submission.

Thanks.
