Tried, but can't test that. Putting the old binutils on the machine just
makes the build fail:

Linking CXX executable ../../bin/mir_unit_tests.bin
/usr/bin/ld: /usr/lib/gcc/x86_64-linux-gnu/5/../../../x86_64-linux-gnu/crti.o: unrecognised relocation (0x2a) in section `.init'
/usr/bin/ld: final link failed: Bad value

or starting again from scratch gives the same error and reports it as:

CMake Error at /usr/share/cmake-3.2/Modules/CMakeTestCCompiler.cmake:61 (message):
  The C compiler "/usr/bin/cc" is not able to compile a simple test program.

Would need to downgrade the compilers on the machine too :P

That said, I think there's also a chance that some 3rd party library
we're pulling in (and have always pulled in) might cause this on xenial.
