e42507d182 * Move tarballs to catamaran so that we are no longer dependent on a
gazillion different servers.  Resurrected some 25 missing files.

dc29a4ac48 * Added SDL, Simple DirectMedia Layer.
* Added NASM, the Netwide Assembler.
* Added Generator, an emulator for Sega Genesis / Mega Drive machines.
  Built with XVideo patch. Strangely it crashes with a GDK error when
  started in normal mode.  However, with the "-a" switch (arcade mode)
  it works, and subsequently switching back to windowed mode (Ctrl-F)
  also works.

8e22f2f58b * Unreal Tournament 2004 Demo. Also a binary-only component.
An interesting complication is that we have to change the ELF type
  of the executable from `Linux' to `SVR4', otherwise the
  `ld-linux.so.2' trick to override the glibc used doesn't work
  (apparently `Linux' is not a recognised ELF type!).

  UT doesn't work with software Mesa, so right now we impurily use
  `/usr/lib/libGL.so'.  I cannot really test whether it works with
  hardware Mesa, since it barfs with an error about missing OpenGL
  extensions.  But that's probably because I'm testing this on an
  iBook over an SSH connection to a Linux machine.

ce53f3736e * Quake 3 Arena Demo. The goal is to show that Nix can also be used
to deploy existing binary-only components.

  We use the `ld-linux.so.2 PROGRAM' trick to force the use of our own
  glibc, and set LD_LIBRARY_PATH to point to the required libraries
  (X11, Mesa).

  Since Mesa is software-only, Q3A is rather slow.  I'll have to
  figure out how to use the Mesa from XFree86 (X.Org), since it knows
  how to use DRI (or at least speak the GLX protocol).  Unfortunately
  the xlibs people haven't modularised that part of XFree86 yet.

  Also, the flag `+set s_initsound 0' has to be passed to Quake to
  disable sound, otherwise it segfaults on startup.  It doesn't do
  this with the normal glibc, which is strange.  Maybe it tries to
  dynamically load some sound library or something.
