the advantage that KDE applications work when logging in via ssh,
and that you don't need to logout to have KDE upgrades take effect.
On the downside, since the various KDE packages and shared-mime-info
all have their own MIME databases, if we put them in one symlink
tree (systemPath), we need to rerun update-mime-database on the
symlink tree. Also, systemPath is getting very large.

- Remove Arguments that can be accessed either by "config" or "pkgs".
- Use the new scheme for upstart-jobs/default.nix.
This is now a configuration file which is imported by system/options.nix.
- Jobs can now include upstart-job/default.nix:
* upstrat-jobs/cron.nix
* upstart-jobs/dhclient.nix
=> No Nixos file refers to upstart-jobs/default.nix except if one of its options is require to define an extra job. (e.g.: cron, dhclient)

automatic copying of build results from remote Nix stores work
more-or-less automatically. All you have to do is mount the remote
FS on a subdirectory of /var/run/nix/remote-stores, e.g.
$ sshfs remote_machine:/ /var/run/nix/remote-stores/foo
* Set $NIXPKGS_ALL.

by default since this can really make the functioning of
applications unpredictable as they can pick up arbitrary
library versions from that directory. LD_LIBRARY_PATH should only
contain very specific paths (like /var/run/opengl-driver/lib for
overriding the system OpenGL implementation, or the NSS module
path). This is even more important given that the stdenv-updates
branch uses RUNPATHs instead of RPATHs, so *all* libraries are
overridable by LD_LIBRARY_PATH.

add `/var/run/current-system/sw/lib' to `LD_LIBRARY_PATH'. This should allow
NSS modules to be added and taken into account by applications without
the need to reboot.

Currently, the solution is a bit hackish since running applications
will not work after a `nixos-rebuild' because `libnss_mdns' is not
in their `LD_LIBRARY_PATH'.

This variable is not honored by `aclocal' itself but by the wrapper that's
installed for `aclocal' by the `automake' package.
