- Remove Arguments that can be accessed either by "config" or "pkgs".
- Use the new scheme for upstart-jobs/default.nix.
This is now a configuration file which is imported by system/options.nix.
- Jobs can now include upstart-job/default.nix:
* upstrat-jobs/cron.nix
* upstart-jobs/dhclient.nix
=> No Nixos file refers to upstart-jobs/default.nix except if one of its options is require to define an extra job. (e.g.: cron, dhclient)

i.e., only the specified jobs are rebuilt and restarted.
Example:
$ test/test-upstart-job.sh udev
will rebuild and restart just the udev service. This is useful
e.g. when making changes to the udev package, which would
normally entail rebuilding lots of other services as well
(e.g. the X service might depend on KDE, which depends on HAL,
which depends on udev...).
It's implemented by making a copy of the current /etc/event.d
in /tmp/event.d, then replacing only those jobs indicated on the
command line, symlinking /etc/event.d to /tmp/event.d, and
restarting init.

of NixOS to be specified externally from the main Nix expressions
(since an installation would be hard to maintain if users started
editing the NixOS expressions directory). But to make that
user-friendly we need:
- Hierarchical options (just like the Nixpkgs configuration).
- Option descriptions from which documentation can be generated.
- Validation (e.g., does each option exist? does it have a valid
value?).
- The option declarations should be inside the Nix expressions to
which they are relevant (rather than, say, one big file with option
declarations).

by the program /sbin/splash_helper in the initrd and is called even
before /init.
* make-initrd.nix: allow a list of FSOs to be placed in the initrd,
with a symlink to each top-level FSO (e.g., /init,
/sbin/splash_helper, /etc/splash).
* make-initrd.nix: pre-create /proc, /dev and /sys, because
splash_helper needs them.

from consoles to themes is specified in splash-themes.nix.

kernel command line, instead of having a /init symlink. This allows
us to switch between configurations.
* Some debug support: adding `debug' to the kernel command line gives
a stage 1 shell.
