Eelco Dolstra a830968c53 * New bootstrap binaries (from r16022 in the trunk). Don't set
LD_LIBRARY_PATH since it breaks /bin/sh on non-NixOS platforms (and
  reverted the previous "fix" in r15470).

Eelco Dolstra e1cfa22536 * Let's see how far we get with separate locales.

Eelco Dolstra 40f01daa81 * A function to build Glibc's locale-archive separately from Glibc.

Eelco Dolstra 2a7ff23a8f * A patch to Glibc to allow the location of locale-archive to be
overriden at runtime (not enabled yet, but it works).  This will
  allow us to build Glibc with no or a minimal set of locales (which
  cuts 70 MB from the installed size of Glibc).  The locales that the
  user actually needs can then be built separately and enabled by
  setting the environment variable LOCALE_ARCHIVE.  For instance, on
  NixOS, we could set it to something like
  /var/run/current-system/locale-archive.  For setuid applications,
  the variable is ignored.

  This is especially useful on 64-bit systems, because there we tend
  to have *two* copies of locale-archive (namely in the 32-bit and
  64-bit builds of Glibc).  Having only one copy allows at least 70 MB
  to be cut from the NixOS installation CD.

Eelco Dolstra c9b6da363f * Hack to prevent a dependency in Glibc on the stdenv-linux bootstrap
tools.

Eelco Dolstra 821de7706a * Glibc 2.9. Got rid of 2.8 because we never used it.
* Kernel headers 2.6.27.  However, they don't work yet because they
  have a Perl dependency, which is annoying during the bootstrap.
