nixpkgs/pkgs/development/libraries/glibc-2.11/default.nix
Lluís Batlle i Rossell a263cb814e Fixed some details on cross compilation. Among others:
- Stating better the guile dependencies (native/host) for guile to build
- Fixing cross-linking, through --rpath-link (ld(1) explains well about it
- Made gcc call the linker and the assembler through the gcc wrapper instead of
  directly. I thought this was the source of missing -rpath's, but the source
  of the problem ended up being the lack of --rpath-link. But I think the
  native gcc calls the wrapped ld and as, so let's do the same cross
  compiling.
- Removed the binutilsCross from the glibc expressions. Now they are built
  using the gcc-cross-wrapper, and they were built with the direct gcc and
  binutils before this change.
- I think patchelf and strip don't break the cross-compiled binaries, so I
  reallow them on cross compilation.
- I disable the checkPhase on cross compilation. This made gmp and libtool
  fail when cross compiled, iirc.

/* Fix for NIXPKGS-79: when doing host name lookups, when
nsswitch.conf contains a line like
hosts: files mdns4_minimal [NOTFOUND=return] dns mdns4
don't return an error when mdns4_minimal can't be found. This
is a bug in Glibc: when a service can't be found, NSS should
continue to the next service unless "UNAVAIL=return" is set.
("NOTFOUND=return" refers to the service returning a NOTFOUND
error, not the service itself not being found.) The reason is
that the "status" variable (while initialised to UNAVAIL) is
outside of the loop that iterates over the services, the
"files" service sets status to NOTFOUND. So when the call to
find "mdns4_minimal" fails, "status" will still be NOTFOUND,
and it will return instead of continuing to "dns". Thus, the
line
hosts: mdns4_minimal [NOTFOUND=return] dns mdns4
does work because "status" will contain UNAVAIL after the
failure to find mdns4_minimal. */
