propagatedBuildInputs, because those inputs are required by the *.pc
or *.la files of the package:
- If a *.pc file references a non-propagated input, then Gnome
packages have the bad tendency to silently ignore this problem in
configure scripts - the failure of a command like `pkg-config
--cflags foo' will be ignored if a dependency of foo.pc is
missing, so no flags will be added, and the build will fail later
on a missing header or library.
- If a *.la file references a non-propagated input, the build will
also fail, because Libtool will add library dependencies that it
cannot find. (Arguably *.la files should never reference packages
that aren't in the corresponding *.pc file, but they do it
anyway).
By setting the propagatedBuildInputs properly, it should be possible
to get rid of all the NIX_CFLAGS_COMPILE / NIX_LDFLAGS hacks in the
Gnome expressions.

configuration directory so that users on other distributions don't
need to set $FONTCONFIG_FILE (NIXPKGS-29). Also use
/var/cache/fontconfig for the cache to prevent programs run by root
from writing into the Nix store.

development/libraries/{glib,gtk+,pango,atk,...}. Done for glib/gtk+
1.2. Also deleted some obsolete, unused versions (gtkLibs 2.10,
2.12, and 2.14).

* Dropped "nolongdouble.patch". The patch no longer applies to Python 2.6, and
apparently isn't required anymore either.
* Added access to native Darwin arch utility. Python tries to run 'arch' in
the configure stage, but that binary reside in /usr/bin. To make it
available to the expression, the small wrapper darwinArchUtility is added as
a buildInput if appropriate.
* Don't pass --enable-shared. The build fails if we try to enable building of
shared libraries, apparently because some required libraries aren't linked,
i.e. the linker call isn't right.
TODO:
* Figure out how to enable shared linking.
* The resulting binary on Darwin seem to lack the binascii module.

The build succeeds on i686-linux. Other platforms look good, too,
because there were hardly any changes necessary to update the expression
from 2.5.

Updating libgpod
Making gtkpod accept 'ogg' files, and made it convert them well to mp3, if 'lame'
and oggdec is in path. It should better reference lame and libvorbis store path
files.
