[Nix-dev] Stdenv branch merge

[Eelco Dolstra]

Hi all,

I'm about to merge the stdenv branch into the trunk.  This has two fairly
critical fixes:

- A change to Glibc to prevent it from using /etc/ld.so.cache.  On systems such
as Ubuntu, this can cause Nix packages to dynamically link against libraries in
/usr/lib and so on.  (Patch by Jack Cummings.)

- A workaround to GMP aborts in QEMU/KVM virtual machines.

There are also some minor updates to Bash, OpenSSL and so on.

As always, after the merge, it may take the Nixpkgs/NixOS channels a while to
catch up.
