This downloads and installs mambo, the power8 simulator, including some
dependencies to ensure it runs on Travis' ancient Ubuntu 12.04.

Without the newer libc, you'll see a warning like this:

 /opt/ibm/systemsim-p8/bin/systemsim-pegasus:
  /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libstdc++.so.6: version `GLIBCXX_3.4.20' not
  found (required by /opt/ibm/systemsim-p8/bin/systemsim-pegasus)

Where GLIBCXX_3.4.20 is GCC 4.9. This is why we require libstdc++ from the
ppa.
