I thought I didn't change stdenv, but I did. This will go soon into the stdenv
branch then.
Reverse-merging r16467 through r16465.

works on Red Hat Linux, i.e. that is based on glibc version 2.5.
Furthermore, this patch fixes a number of gcc 4.3.3 build errors in glibc 2.5
that occur on both x86 and x86_64. The older version of this library is still
useful for running Nix on a Red Hat host. Newer version of glibc fail to detect
the kernel's capabilities correctly (due to mad patches applied to the kernel
by Red Hat).
The individual changes are:
* Re-activated glibc 2.5 in all-packages.nix.
* Fix incomplete header search path in bootstrap tools.
Gcc-wrapper sets "-B<prefix>" to tell the compiler about its installation
root. Unfortunately, the setting doesn't add $gcc/lib/gcc/*/*/include-fixed
to the search path. That directory is required, however, because it contains
the system-specific "limits.h" file, and the glibc 2.5 builds tries to find
that file via #include_next.
* Support intrinsic functions like __signbit() or atof() correctly to avoid
compile-time conflicts.
* Switch to NPTL. Linuxthreads is no longer supported.
* Added a meta attribute to glibc package.
* Updated nixUnstable to version 0.13pre15614 from trunk. The previous version
failed regression tests.
* Fix more strict type checking in binutils since 2.18.50.0.3.
Without this patch, the build failed on x86, saying:
../sysdeps/i386/fpu/ftestexcept.c: Assembler messages:
../sysdeps/i386/fpu/ftestexcept.c:33: Error: suffix or operands invalid for `fnstsw'

* Added dsymutil to gcc wrapper env on darwin
* turned off make check for gnugrep on darwin
* added --enable-bsd=libs configure flag for gnugrep on darwin

in the Nix expression evaluator (namely that comparison of attribute
sets works properly).
* Removed some redundant parentheses in builder-defs.

modules for the initial ramdisk if there were no additional kernel
module packages (such as the NVIDIA driver or AUFS), leading to a
kernel panic in the initrd. This was because in that case modprobe
would print paths referring to the kernel path rather than the
module aggregation path, and then `sed "s^$kernel^$out^"' would
silently fail. Fixed.
* Also, use depmod here rather than doing sed hackery on modules.dep.
* Also, `allowMissing' was broken (missing "$" before the variable
name).

builders. These are redundant now.
* Inlined some trivial builders.
* Removed a few explicit setup-hook creations. This is done
automatically now if setupHook is set.
* Deleted the initscripts package. NixOS doesn't use it anymore.
svn path=/nixpkgs/branches/stdenv-updates/; revision=15276
* setup.sh: removed some obsolete features, specifically some that
were only used by the old build farm.
* addToSearchPath: removed some parameters that weren't used
anywhere.

otherwise aclocal barfs. Updated the builder to use makeWrapper
* Made Automake 1.10 the default.
* Fixed `make check' in Automake by turning off indented logging in
Make (there is a flag for that now).
* Disabled the `make check' in Automake by default because it takes a
REALLY long time (e.g. more than 2 hours on Cygwin, 50 minutes on
Darwin, 25 minutes on Linux) which is a lot for a package that
otherwise takes 10 seconds to build. We can add a Hydra job with
doCheck enabled to do regression testing.
* make-wrapper: allow --run commands to add additional flags to the
invocation of the wrapped program. An example is the aclocal
wrapper: it adds additional -I ... flags.
* make-wrapper: call the wrapped program .foo-wrapped instead of
.wrapped-foo to make it easier to tell programs apart in `ps'
output.
svn path=/nixpkgs/branches/stdenv-updates/; revision=14885
* Added a function binaryTarball to do a DESTDIR build into
/usr/local. Useful for making statically linked binaries. However,
it may be better to do this in a VM (since if you do it in a Nix
build environment, you can still end up with a lot of Nix
dependencies in your binaries, even if you do static linking).

instead of "gcc-4.3.3". This fixed the long-standing annoyance that
you can't distinguish the two in (say) nix-store -qR.
* On x86_64-linux, put $out/lib64 in the RPATH in addition to
$out/lib, because some packages (in particular GCC) put libraries in
$out/lib64 and ended up linking against the wrong library.
* Strip $out/lib64.
* Removed g77_42 because it's exactly the same as gfortran.

"*.tar.bz2 *.tar.gz" and there are no *.tar.gz files. Maybe we
should turn this on in stdenv (nullglob just seems like the right
thing to do in general).
svn path=/nixpkgs/trunk/; revision=14606
of Hydra builds more distinct (e.g. "patchelf-build-0.5pre1234"
instead of just "patchelf-build"). If the version isn't known,
append at least the revision.
* Propagate the release name of the source tarball to Nix builds.
Useful to provide sensible package names in channels.

* Create some device nodes in the RPM/Deb disk images, since modern
distributions may not provide any device nodes (they're all
generated by udev).

image, otherwise the post-installs script of the "passwd" package
will fail because /etc/login.defs is missing. This also fixes the
Ubuntu 8.10 image generation, woohoo!

* Put the Glibc linker flags in front of the GCC linker flags. Needed
for the stdenv-linux bootstrap.

should fix previous problems with GCC 4.3 in compiling C++ code
where e.g. <cassert> has to appear before <assert.h> in the search
path due to the former's use of #include_next. The previous "fix"
broke compilation of C code by placing the C++ include directory
before the Glibc include directory (which would barf on
e.g. <complex.h>, which appears in both).
