[Bug 1403758] Re: Unity8 shows black screen with Qt 5.4.0

[Timo Jyrinki]

This still happens on current wily. Using the -reduce-relocations option
plus opting to use it on arm (upstream still carries a patch that
disables symbolic function binding on non-x86) causes the Unity 8 to
just show black screen.
