Yeah, but this is not going in the right direction. This means that
pyside will be built with the embedded patchelf. The embedded patchelf is
outdated. But it will build and do its work...

Really, if the test suite failure can't be fixed quickly, it would be
better to ignore the failure on the broken architectures and let the
package build anyway. It's unlikely that the tool is entirely broken...
and it's just a pity to ask pyside to deal with a varying set of
architectures for patchelf.

Cheers,
