This is for consistency with terminology in stdenv (and the terms
"hostDrv" and "buildDrv" are not very intuitive, even if they're
consistent with GNU terminology).
This feature sounds crazy, but it is used in some configure scripts (e.g. xbmc).
This patch causes an almost complete rebuild of Nixpkgs.
Patch submitted by Jan Malakhovski <oxij@oxij.org>.
what the new nix thinks the fuloong is.
Anyone having the old nix should use a nixpkgs previous to this change to build
the new nix. And then, with the new nix, he can use any newer nixpkgs revision.

path worth a "-rpath" entry.
This put a problem in the bootstrap, where we built 'zlib' and wanted to link programs with it, and while they got linked well, at runtime the boostrap-tools zlib came first on rpath becaue
the ld call was done with "-dynamic-linker ..." before "-lz".
I saw this trouble on the fuloong, where the zlib in boostrap-tools is not
runtime compatible with that binutils are linked to.

derivation instead of a string, but this did not cover all use cases we had.
Instead of updating the use cases, I made the wrapper accept also a string.
We saw this problem trying to build gcc43_multi.

it properly put the rpath for directly passed .so files, and additionally it
works much faster than the old ld-wrapper.

on the next stdenv-updates.
This would fix the build for many cmake packages, although that requires updating the stdenv
in those for its gcc to use this 2nd wrapper.
I updated paraview and avidemux. I can't recall now more packages with problems, but I was
quite sure there were.
If anyone sees a cmake-built package with the result binaries lacking some rpaths, then try
this wrapper.

because it makes linking very slow. Use bash's =~ operator instead
(and only once for each argument). We depend on bash already anyway
because of arrays so it's not a problem.

something'.
It should not link at least for '-x c-header' and '-x c++-header', and maybe
link for '-x c' or '-x c++', but we expect noone will be linking using these
later strings.
Adding opencv, which required '-x c-header' working, and that's why I have
updated gcc wrapper.

regexp looking for such ld arguments did not work well with "--soname=xxx.so".
Now I added the condition that the argument should not start with a hyphen, for
it to be possibly considered a .so file to link with.

Removing any reference to the gcc-wrapper2, as now the gcc-wrapper already conveys
the changes, I created gcc-wrapper2 in trunk for.

This comes from:
svn diff ^/nixpkgs/trunk/@18255 ^/nixpkgs/branches/stdenv-updates/ > diff
patch -p0 < diff
and then adding into svn all files new from the patch.
trunk@18255 comes from the last time I updated stdenv-updates from trunk.

I thought I didn't change stdenv, but I did. This will go soon into the stdenv
branch then.
Reverse-merging r16467 through r16465.

works on Red Hat Linux, i.e. that is based on glibc version 2.5.
Furthermore, this patch fixes a number of gcc 4.3.3 build errors in glibc 2.5
that occur on both x86 and x86_64. The older version of this library is still
useful for running Nix on a Red Hat host. Newer version of glibc fail to detect
the kernel's capabilities correctly (due to mad patches applied to the kernel
by Red Hat).
The individual changes are:
* Re-activated glibc 2.5 in all-packages.nix.
* Fix incomplete header search path in bootstrap tools.
Gcc-wrapper sets "-B<prefix>" to tell the compiler about its installation
root. Unfortunately, the setting doesn't add $gcc/lib/gcc/*/*/include-fixed
to the search path. That directory is required, however, because it contains
the system-specific "limits.h" file, and the glibc 2.5 builds tries to find
that file via #include_next.
* Support intrinsic functions like __signbit() or atof() correctly to avoid
compile-time conflicts.
* Switch to NPTL. Linuxthreads is no longer supported.
* Added a meta attribute to glibc package.
* Updated nixUnstable to version 0.13pre15614 from trunk. The previous version
failed regression tests.
* Fix more strict type checking in binutils since 2.18.50.0.3.
Without this patch, the build failed on x86, saying:
../sysdeps/i386/fpu/ftestexcept.c: Assembler messages:
../sysdeps/i386/fpu/ftestexcept.c:33: Error: suffix or operands invalid for `fnstsw'
