Now gcc is just another build input, making it possible in the future
to have a stdenv that doesn't depend on a C compiler. This is very
useful on NixOS, since it would allow trivial builders like
writeTextFile to work without pulling in the C compiler.
bash's pattern replacement feature. "replace-literal" is an
uncommon command so it was a headache during the bootstrap.

merge cleanly right away (kde-4, kernel stuff) so it should be
merged later. But the stdenv stuff is all there.

* Removed substitute, it's part of the generic builder now.
* stdenv-initial (Linux): use the real generic builder script. This
does require that sed is in the path of the builder of the initial
stdenv.

be passed to derivations that need to apply patches.
* GCC 3.4 is now the default compiler (old GCC renamed to `gcc-3.3').
* The temporary GCCs built during the stdenvLinux bootstrap are now
built without C++ support and without profiling.
* Remove fixincl in GCC 3.4 to prevent a retained dependency on the
previous GCC.
* Always set $prefix in setup.sh, even when there is no configure
script.

On the downside, the build process of stdenvLinux builds gcc 9 times
(3 x 3 bootstrap stages). That's a bit excessive.

* Make builders unexecutable by removing the hash-bang line and
execute permission.
* Convert calls to `derivation' to `mkDerivation'.
* Remove `system' and `stdenv' attributes from calls to
`mkDerivation'. These transformations were all done automatically,
so it is quite possible I broke stuff.
* Put the `mkDerivation' function in stdenv/generic.

- gcc/ld-wrappers have been factored out into a separate
derivation. This allows a working gcc to be installed in the user
environment. (Previously the Nix gcc didn't work because it
needed a whole bunch of flags to point to glibc.)
- Better modularity: packages can specify hooks into the setup
scripts. For instance, setup no longer knows about the
PKG_CONFIG_PATH variable; pkgconfig can set it up instead.
- gcc not longer depends on binutils. This simplifies the bootstrap
process.
