Passing "--option build-repeat <N>" will cause every build to be
repeated N times. If the build output differs between any round, the
build is rejected, and the output paths are not registered as
valid. This is primarily useful to verify build determinism. (We
already had a --check option to repeat a previously succeeded
build. However, with --check, non-deterministic builds are registered
in the DB. Preventing that is useful for Hydra to ensure that
non-deterministic builds don't end up getting published at all.)
This reverts commit 79ca503332. Ouch,
never noticed this. We definitely don't want to allow builds to have
arbitrary access to /bin and /usr/bin, because then they can (for
instance) bring in a bunch of setuid programs. Also, we shouldn't be
encouraging the use of impurities in the default configuration.
If automatic store optimisation is enabled, and a hard-linked file in
the store gets corrupted, then the corresponding .links entry will
also be corrupted. In that case, trying to repair with --repair or
--repair-path won't work, because the new "good" file will be replaced
by a hard link to the corrupted file. We can catch most of these cases
by doing a sanity-check on the file sizes.

This removes the need to have multiple downloads in the stdenv
bootstrap process (like a separate busybox binary for Linux, or
curl/mkdir/sh/bzip2 for Darwin). Now all those files can be combined
into a single NAR.
This makes it consistent with the Nixpkgs fetchurl and makes it work
in chroots. We don't need verification because the hash of the result
is checked anyway.
The stack allocated for the builder was way too small (32 KB). This is
sufficient for normal derivations, because they just do some setup and
then exec() the actual builder. But for the fetchurl builtin
derivation it's not enough. Also, allocating the stack on the caller's
stack was fishy business.
If keywords are matched on the start/end of words then
keywords are also matched if they are surrounded by dashes
or underscores. For example the keyword with is highlighted
in geany-with-vte. When matching on the start/end of symbols
the keyword is only highlighted if it is not part of an other
identifier.
