Eelco Dolstra 0a05618f11 * Fix weird behaviour with "gcc -v" due to linker flags being appended
to the gcc invocation.

  If we pass a flag like -Wl, then gcc will call the linker unless it
  can figure out that it has to do something else (e.g., because of a
  "-c" flag).  So if no non-flag arguments are given, don't pass any
  linker flags.  This catches cases like "gcc" (should just print
  "gcc: no input files") and "gcc -v" (should print the version).

# The Nix `gcc' stdenv.mkDerivation is not directly usable, since it doesn't
# know where the C library and standard header files are. Therefore
# the compiler produced by that package cannot be installed directly
# in a user environment and used from the command line. This
# stdenv.mkDerivation provides a wrapper that sets up the right environment
# variables so that the compiler and the linker just "work".
