NDK r8b includes some significant improvements like gcc 4.6 (up from 4.4) and the gold linker. TODO: 1. Fix build. I hit some build errors where our definition of struct sigcontext conflicts with Android's sigcontext.h. 2. Test gold linker because of known binutils bug: https://code.google.com/p/android/issues/detail?id=35342 3. File a RelEng bug to get the process of updating the NDK started.

Note we've had a gcc 4.6-enabled NDK available on the build slaves for a while (with gold as default linker, contrary to NDK r8b), and were ready to enable it in bug 769099 but there's bug 749184 on the way.

Since this never happened I think we should just upgrade directly to r8c which doesn't have the problems listed above. See bug 769099 for some discussion.
