* The statically linked bootstrap tools are now automatically
reproducable, just do:
$ nix-build ./make-bootstrap-tools.nix
The resulting binaries in result/in-nixpkgs go to
stdenv/linux/bootstrap/<platform>/, and the tarballs in
result/on-server go to
https://svn.cs.uu.nl:12443/repos/trace/tarballs/trunk/stdenv-linux/<platform>/<revision>/.
These are checked out on nix.cs.uu.nl under http://.../dist/tarballs.
* The statically linked libraries all use dietlibc now (except
patchelf and glibc), so they are much smaller. This is especially
nice for the tools in the Nixpkgs tree, since it makes Nixpkgs
tarballs smaller.
* Use Binutils 2.17 and GCC 4.1.1 for the bootstrap.
* The stdenv is now based on Glibc 2.5. I hope it works ;-)

set to the result, but don't use them in the actual derivation (so
they're not inputs). Useful to pass through extra attributes that
are not inputs, but should be made available to Nix expressions
using the derivation (e.g., in assertions).

A stdenv/mingw/pkgs/pkgconfig-builder.sh
Bootstrap pkg-config: support the setup hook.
M stdenv/mingw/fix-builder.sh
Fix the "system" variable.
svn path=/nixpkgs/trunk/; revision=6267
Moved all the shell fixes to fix-builder.sh, which is now always invoked.
Added aterm to the list of packages provided by mingw.nix

- clone of fetchurl that invokes a given chmod to workaround problems
with inappropriate file permissions (executable files are not allowed
by Nix)
- cygpath tool to determine the full windows path of a cygwin
tool. This tool is used to give fetchurl the windows path to chmod.
- native curl.exe
- gcc-wrapper no longer used
- all-packages.nix: allows stdenv to specify fetchurl.

function to regenerate itself with a different setup script. This
is useful for experimenting with changes to the setup script in
specific packages without triggering a rebuild of everything.
* stdenv/generic/setup-latest.sh is a branch of setup.sh containing
pending changes that will be merged into setup.sh eventually.
* setup-latest.sh: don't use tar's "z" and "j" flags. Rather, call
gzip and bunzip2 directly.

(ideally, this should be the other way around, but I have no idea how
many packages will break if we enable shared libraries by default)

contains arbitrary information about a package, like this:
meta = {
homepage = "http://gcc.gnu.org/";
license = "GPL/LGPL";
description = "GNU Compiler Collection, 4.0.x";
};
The "meta" attribute is not passed to the actual derivation
operation, so it's not a dependency --- changes to "meta" attributes
don't trigger a recompilation.
Now we have to standardise some useful attributes ;-)

all-packages. That is, an attribute like "bash" in all-packages.nix
should evaluate to the "bash" used to build stdenv, it shouldn't
build a new one.
Hm, this would be a lot cleaner if we had lazy_rec ;-)

Now, switching the curl to this version did not trigger a massive rebuild on
my system, which puzzles me. Maybe it is because no checksum is recorded?
Am I doing something wrong?

* Use the system Perl on all non-i686-linux platforms.
* Don't build Python support in libxml2 on most platforms.

$glibc/lib/gconv/ISO-2022-JP.so has an RPATH of `$ORIGIN' so that it
can find glibc/lib/gconv/libJIS.so; `$ORIGIN' should not be filtered
out of the RPATH).

* Combine most of the archives together into one file (static.bz2).
* Don't depend on Subversion directories, but single files only.
Otherwise any Subversion operation may cause a rebuild because
something in .svn changes. It would be nice if .svn directories
were filtered out when copying things to the store.
* Glibc tarball: removed all .so files, /bin and /sbin, etc., and put
linux-headers in the Glibc tarball.

this contains mostly Armijn's pure stdenv-linux.
* After unpacking the statically linked GCC, patch all store paths to
/nix/store/ffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffff. Ugly hack to prevent
undeclared references but it works.
* We don't need Glib's dynamic libraries in the first bootstrap stage;
delete them. Actually the downloaded Glibc binary is only needed
for building Glibc, since GCC needs a C compiler to build some
programs in `configure'. So static linking is fine for that. Maybe
it would be better to patch `configure' so that we don't need a
pre-built Glibc at all.
* Set the svn:executable property on `cp' and `patchelf'.
* In Glibc, revert to LinuxThreads. Maybe NPTL will work, but TLS
support is a problem.
* Delete most Glibc patches; they're no longer needed since the branch
updated it to 20050110.
* Some cleanups.
