Notable changes:

No additional commits.

Due to incorrect staging of the upgrade to the GCC 4.9.X compiler, the
latest releases for PPC little endian were built using GCC 4.9.X
instead of GCC 4.8.X. This caused an ABI breakage on PPCLE based
environments. This has been fixed in our infrastructure and we are
doing this release to ensure that the hosted binaries are adhering to
our platform support contract.

Note that Node.js versions 10.X and later will be built with version
4.9.X or later of the GCC compiler, and it is possible that Node.js
version 8.X may be built on the 4.9.X compiler at a later time as the
stated minimum compiler requirement for Node.js version 8.X is 4.9.4.
