By now, it happened twice that a commit broke GHC and thus all Haskell packages
we have in Nixpkgs. On such an occasion, I receive well in excess of 3000
notification e-mails from Hydra, and then I receive another 3000 e-mails after
the bug has been fixed. Under these circumstances, subscribing to these
notifications makes no sense for me.

Merge conflicts:
* unzip (almost trivial)
* dvswitch (trivial)
* gmp (copied result of `git merge`)
The last item introduced gmp-5.0.3, thus full rebuild.
+ensureDir->mkdir -p in TeX packages was catched by git but not svn.

* haskell-mkcabal: updated to version 1.0.0
* haskell-ghc-syb-utils: updated to version 0.2.1.0
* haskell-darcs: updated to version 2.5.2
svn path=/nixpkgs/trunk/; revision=28449
Several changes, some highlights:
* Structure of haskell-packages.nix updated. It's now easier to
select different default versions of packages for different
versions of GHC.
* GHC 7.0.2 is now default.
* Haskell Platform 2011.2.0.0 has been added and is now default.
* Several packages have been updated
(gtk2hs, gitit, xmonad, darcs, ...).
* Some old packages have been removed.

the cross compilation functionality.
- I renamed some expected stdenv.mkDerivation parameter attributes so we can
keep this branch properly updated from trunk. We agreed with Nicolas Pierron
doing a massive renaming, so all current buildInputs become hostInputs (input
as build for the host machine, in autotools terminology) , and
then buildInputs would mean "input as for the build machine".
By now, the specific "input as for the build machine" is specified through
buildNativeInputs. We should fix this in the merge to trunk.
- I made the generic stdenv understand the buildNativeInputs, otherwise if
we start changing nixpkgs expressions so they distinguish the current
buildInputs into buildInputs and buildNativeInputs, we could break even more
nixpkgs for other platforms.
- I changed the default result of mkDerivation so it becomes the derivation for
to be run in the build machine. This allows, without any special rewriting,
"fetchurl" derivations to be always results for the build machine to use
them.
- The change above implies that, for anyone wanting to cross-compile, has to
build the hostDrv of the wanted derivation. For example, after this commit,
the usual test of "nix-build -A bison.hostDrv arm.nix" works. I described
the contents of this arm.nix in r18398.

builders. These are redundant now.
* Inlined some trivial builders.
* Removed a few explicit setup-hook creations. This is done
automatically now if setupHook is set.
* Deleted the initscripts package. NixOS doesn't use it anymore.

into haskell-packages.nix, which depends on an instance of GHC.
This allows a consistent set of packages to be built with the same
GHC. For instance,
$ nix-build -A haskellPackages_ghc683.xmonad
builds xmonad and all its dependencies with GHC 6.8.3, while
$ nix-build -A haskellPackages_ghc6102.xmonad
does the same with GHC 6.10.2. This is the same technique used with
kernelPackages. It also means that we don't need things like
"cabal682" and "cabal683" anymore.
* The setup hook is now in a separate wrapper package so that we don't
have to recompile all of GHC every time we want to make a small
change.
* cinelerra: this package appears to have an accidental dependency on
the "X11" Haskell package.

Most importantly, this change required updating the ANTLR 2.x expression to
install the Python run-time library. While we're at it, we're building the
run-time library for C++ and Java, too. There is still work to be done: the
stringtemplate library doesn't find antlr.py without help yet.
