`$NIX_BUILD_TOP/env-vars' at the beginning of each build phase. In

even if some build phase failed if the variable `$succeedOnFailure'

* A new `distPhase' to build source distributions (enabled when
$doDist = 1).
* A new `checkPhase' to perform `make check' (enabled when $doCheck =
1).
* Allow the prefix to be redirected, either by setting $prefix or by
setting $useTempPrefix to 1. Useful when making distributions.
* Allow the build or install phases to be skipped by setting
$dontBuild $dontInstall to 1.
* Allow the order of phases to be changed by setting $phases.
