Eelco Dolstra 6b66d16116 * Provide an ld-wrapper that sets the linker search path correctly (just like
gcc-wrapper).  Useful for builds that call ld directly.

Eelco Dolstra eaadea1e2a * Initialise the PATH immediately at the start of stdenv-linux, otherwise
baseenv won't work properly (because it can't find programs such as `cat').

Eelco Dolstra 40bc2cc9b6 * Started on working towards the fully Nixified build environment, i.e., one
where we don't use any tools from outside the Nix environment.  For this we
  need the basic POSIX utilities (e.g., GNU coreutils), a shell, GCC, and the
  binutils.

  Normal packages just need to include stdenv/stdenv.fix, which on Linux will
  use the Nixified environment.  However, for the tools in the build
  environment itself we have a bootstrapping problem.  Therefore, these depend
  on the external environment (and include stdenv-linux/stdenv-nativetools).

  The package `baseenv' provides some generic setup and GCC wrappers used by
  both fully Nixified and native environments.
