Eelco Dolstra 501ceef268 * A function `useDietLibC' that returns a modified stdenv that uses
dietlibc to produce small, statically linked binaries.  This stdenv
  also passes `-Os' to GCC automatically to optimise for size.  It
  also tries to prevent builders from linking against dynamic
  libraries (which dietlibc doesn't support).

* A function `addAttrsToDerivation' that returns a modified stdenv
  that always adds the specified attributes to the derivations that it
  produces.  Example (from curl):

    curlDiet =  import ../tools/networking/curl {
      inherit fetchurl zlib;
      stdenv = addAttrsToDerivation {
        CFLAGS = "-DHAVE_INET_NTOA_R_2_ARGS=1";
      } (useDietLibC stdenv);
    };

  (This is needed to get curl to build with dietlibc.  Also note the
  stacking of stdenv-modifying functions.)

* curl-diet: no longer necessary.
