Then, next updates of glibc versions should involve also a change in the LOCALE_ARCHIVE_X_XX variable name, and this way nixos would deal properly with locales and old-glibc packages.
I welcome other solutions. This looks simple enough, so that's why I go on it.

This involved fixing some buildInputs/buildNativeInputs in acl/attr,
and adding a libiconv in some places.

It fails because it builds bin2c for the host system, instead of the build system.
I will wait for a fix upstream.

Made octave link with graphicsmagick to get imread() working.
Nevertheless, imread does not work, because of some problems between octave and latest versions of graphicsmagick: http://www-old.cae.wisc.edu/pipermail/octave-maintainers/2010-February/015295.html
Next to do: add an older version of graphics magick for octave.

"meta" and "passthru", and these attributes will be appended to the usual
mkDerivation attributes only if the package is cross built.
This allows putting some of the cross-building logic in the mkDerivation
nix parameters, and not only in the final builder script, as it was until now.

Updating the cross-build expressions, adding some flexibility.
Updated the linux headers used cross building, as 2.6.28 had bugs on endianness in
sparc64.
There were, as usual some bugs in gcc. Maybe not many make a cross compiler to
ultrasparc.
For the record, I could build an ultrasparc kernel with this base nix:
import /etc/nixos/nixpkgs/default.nix # The root nixpkgs default.nix
{
crossSystem = {
config = "sparc64-unknown-linux";
bigEndian = true;
arch = "sparc64";
float = "soft";
withTLS = true;
cpu = "ultrasparc";
};
config = pkgs: {
packageOverrides = pkgs : {
platform = {
name = "sparc64";
kernelHeadersBaseConfig = "sparc64_defconfig";
kernelBaseConfig = "sparc64_defconfig";
kernelArch = "sparc";
kernelAutoModules = false;
kernelTarget = "zImage";
uboot = null;
};
};
};
}
Although it did not boot directly in qemu-system-sparc64:
[sparc64] Kernel already loaded

not set anywhere. This causes other packages to break on 64-bit
platforms unless they happen to define those macros. So don't rely
on them.
