* Move kernel patches out of all-packages.nix to
os-specific/linux/kernel/patches.nix.
* Make the kernel config available under $out/config (it's also in
$out/lib/modules/$version/build/.config, but that's kind of hard to
find).

`generate-config.pl' runs `make config' to generate a Linux kernel
configuration file. For each question (i.e. kernel configuration
option), unless an override is provided, it answers "m" if possible,
and otherwise uses the default answer (as determined by the default
config for the architecture). This is safer than allmodconfig,
which answers "y" everywhere it can't answer "m" and thus ends up
enabling a lot of experimental or debug options. (For this reason,
a configuration generated by allmodconfig must be carefully checked
with every new release to ensure that nothing dangerous is enabled.
The default config should be safer wrt new kernel releases.)
Overrides are specified in the `config' argument to generic.nix,
which is a string that contains lines such as `EXT2_FS_POSIX_ACL y'.
The script warns about ignored options, and aborts if `make config'
selects an answer inconsistent with the one in `config'. This
allows us to be sure that `make config' doesn't silently override
our configuration values (e.g., depending on other options, it will
set FB_TILEBLITTING to "y" even if we want it to be "n").

`selectVersion ./foo "bar"' instead of `import ./foo/bar.nix'.
* Replaced `with args' with formal function arguments in several
packages.
* Renamed several files to `default.nix'. As a general rule, version
numbers should only be included in the filename when there is a
reason to keep multiple versions of a package in Nixpkgs.
Otherwise, it just makes it harder to update the package.

Update package cryopid to a new (unstable) version.
The old (stable) version of cryopid works only with old linux kernels.

I think it takes the recent N commits into the repository, which says very little,
even for wanting master/HEAD.

I found no benefit from it. This card worked at most at 500KB/s for me at bitrate 54Mb/s,
and it works the same way with the fw 3.1.

buildDefs doesn't like buildInputs containing nulls.
* In all-packages.nix: xfsProgs -> xfsprogs, jfsUtils -> jfsutils to
match the upstream name.

configure script prints out this ominous warning:
WARNING: PolicyKit is disabled. You need to manually edit the hal.conf
file to lock down the service. Failure to do so allows any
caller to make hald do work on their behalf which may be
a huge SECURITY HOLE. I repeat: YOU NEED TO EDIT THE FILE
hal.conf to match your distro/site to avoid NASTY SECURITY HOLES.
Note that HAL only builds with the old PolicyKit (it looks for
polkit.pc). Reverted ConsoleKit to the last version that used the
old PolicyKit for this reason.
