Eelco Dolstra e97817b577 * Atomically replace the /bin/sh symlink; otherwise there is a time
window in which /bin/sh is missing.  This can cause concurrently
  running programs to fail (e.g. Hydra jobs =>
  http://hydra.nixos.org/build/2267831).  You'd think the odds of this
  are very low, but they're not.
