Eelco Dolstra 01a1658c6b * Finally we have a working stdenvLinux again.
On the downside, the build process of stdenvLinux builds gcc 9 times
  (3 x 3 bootstrap stages).  That's a bit excessive.

Eelco Dolstra 12ae5363ea * Remove trivial builders.
* Make builders unexecutable by removing the hash-bang line and
  execute permission.
* Convert calls to `derivation' to `mkDerivation'.
* Remove `system' and `stdenv' attributes from calls to
  `mkDerivation'.  These transformations were all done automatically,
  so it is quite possible I broke stuff.
* Put the `mkDerivation' function in stdenv/generic.

Eelco Dolstra 5862e56f26 * For simple Autotools-style packages (such as the ATerm library), the
builder may now be omitted entirely; the function `mkDerivation'
  will then use a default build script.

Eelco Dolstra 892b119c9d * It is now possible to execute a builder using a shell inside the Nix
store, rather than outside (such as /bin/sh).

  For instance, the Nix expression for the ATerm library now looks
  like this:

    {stdenv, fetchurl}:

    stdenv.mkDerivation {
      name = "aterm-2.0.5";
      builder = ./builder.sh;
      ...
    }

  where `mkDerivation' is a helper function in `stdenv' that massages
  the given attribute set into using the bash shell that is part of
  the standard environment:

    mkDerivation = attrs: derivation (att s // {
      builder = pkgs.bash ~ /bin/sh;
      args = ["-e" attrs.builder];
      stdenv = (...);
      system = (...).system;
    });

  Note that this makes it unnecessary to set the `stdenv' and `system'
  attributes, since `mkDerivation' already does that.

Eelco Dolstra 0fd59fd7a4 * Re-enabled purity checking: it should work now. First we only
checked whether absolute paths passed to gcc/ld refer to the store,
  which is wrong: they can also refer to the build tree
  (/tmp/nix-...).

* Less static composition in the construction of stdenv-nix-linux:
  gcc-wrapper and generic are now passed in as arguments, rather then
  referenced by relative path.  This makes it easier to hack on a
  specific stage of the bootstrap process (before, a change to, e.g.,
  generic/setup.sh would cause all bootstrap stages to be redone).

Eelco Dolstra de13527000 * Finally got stdenv-nix-linux working again. Still not perfect,
though.
* libxml2: upgrade to latest.
* octavefront/rna: keep debug info.
