[Nix-dev] gcc fails

[Pjotr Prins]

Ah, Michael pointed out it is the same kernel header problem. I am
trying to use binary downloads on an older kernel - writing a
tutorial for newbies.

How do we make this appetizing for Nix newbies? Can we have binaries
for multiple kernel headers?

Old question, again a priority.

Pj.
