John Ericson 39753f5360 top-level: Close over fewer arguments for stdenv stages
This makes the flow of data easier to understand. There's little downside
because the args in question are already inspected by the stdenvs.

cross-compiling in particular is simpler because we don't need to worry
about overriding the config closed over by `allPackages`.

Build Status Code Triagers Badge

Nixpkgs is a collection of packages for the Nix package manager. It is periodically built and tested by the hydra build daemon as so-called channels. To get channel information via git, add nixpkgs-channels as a remote:

% git remote add channels git://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs-channels.git

For stability and maximum binary package support, it is recommended to maintain custom changes on top of one of the channels, e.g. nixos-16.09 for the latest release and nixos-unstable for the latest successful build of master:

% git remote update channels
% git rebase channels/nixos-16.09

For pull-requests, please rebase onto nixpkgs master.

NixOS linux distribution source code is located inside nixos/ folder.
