build: compile translate.o with -fno-gcse option on GCC 4.6.x and 4.7.[012]

These versions of GCC require insane (>2GB) amounts of memory to compile
translate.o.  As a countermeasure, disable the culprit optimization pass.
This should fix the buildbot failure for default_x86_64_fedora16.  Anyway
this is a good thing to do because people will try to compile 1.3 with
less than 2GB of memory and complain.

# Workaround for http://gcc.gnu.org/PR55489. Happens with -fPIE/-fPIC and
# large functions that use global variables. The bug is in all releases of
# GCC, but it became particularly acute in 4.6.x and 4.7.x. It is fixed in
# 4.7.3 and 4.8.0. We should be able to delete this at the end of 2013.
