[Nix-dev] cross compiling with Nix

[Armijn Hemel]

hi all,

I succeeded in building a package for ARM (little-endian) with Nix. That
is, it is completely built with Nix. Eelco D. hacked away at stdenvArm,
a stdenv for ARM builds. We used a gcc-cross-wrapper (which I'd love to
integrate in the normal wrapper if possible) and were able to build uClibc
and with that "patch". I deployed it on an old Jornada 820 we had kicking
around in the lab and it works like a charm.
