If a build expressions has set "enableParallelBuilding = true", then the
generic builder may utilize more than one CPU core to build that particular
expression. This feature works out of the box for GNU Make. Expressions that
use other build drivers like Boost.Jam or SCons have to specify appropriate
flags such as "-j${NIX_BUILD_CORES}" themselves.

but on a nix-store path only having the cross-built gcc libraries.
This trims down a lot the runtime dependency tree for cross-built packages.
I also remove the glibc dependency on the native bash.

Instead, use the generic package override mechanism to use packages
from earlier bootstrap phases.
* Don't rely on the existence of attributes such as
`stdenv.coreutils'.

found before:
- programs linked with this glibc, will be able to find its locale-archive
at LOCALE_ARCHIVE_2_11
- for any problem we forgot to mention, we also add the LOCALE_ARCHIVE
variable, checked after LOCALE_ARCHIVE_2_11. I don't know a strong reason to
have it though.
- setuid programs will expect the locale-archive in
/var/run/current-system/sw/lib/locale, usual path of the locale-archive in
nixos, and a path that a sysadmin can set pointing to the locale-archive in
case of non-nixos. setuid programs don't receive the LOCALE_ARCHIVE
variables.
- non-nixos systems will have a check for the locale-archive in /usr/lib/locale
- the glibc programs 'locale' and 'localedef' may be able to find the proper
locale-archive too.
We were also considering getting rid of the locale-archive, and using
locale files directly (like Ubuntu seems to do [1]), maybe using the LOCPATH
variable. But this would not solve the problem of localized setuid programs.
All this came after a 'meeting' with niksnut on irc about this.

`gcc -v'). It causes build-time only dependencies to be
unnecessarily retained in the closure (e.g. PPL due to
`--with-ppl=/nix/store/...').
* Replace $out/bin/c++ with a symlink to g++.

I removed two patches that don't apply anymore (dragonegg, softfp-hurd).
I hope this means it's all fixed upstream.

I tried to fix some trivial conflicts.
I don't know if I merged well some more difficult conflicts on openssl/darwin_patch
or haskell-platform.
