This removes the need to set $FONTCONFIG_FILE, which is especially
important when using Nixpkgs binaries on non-NixOS systems.
See also 9301524c50. This is a
regression caused by a change in fontconfig's configure switches.
I was trying to cross compile SDL. Many dependencies work, but I ended seeing
libX11 not ready for cross compilation. Other xorg libraries cross-compile
well. libX11 may need a small patch. The problem is the usual "configure test
cannot be run in cross compilation", so the configure script halts.
I made the pkgconfig expression always return buildDrv, as I think it rarely
will be needed as buildInput. So to avoid rewriting all its mentions to use
it as buildNativeInput, I prefered this small change.

configuration directory so that users on other distributions don't
need to set $FONTCONFIG_FILE (NIXPKGS-29). Also use
/var/cache/fontconfig for the cache to prevent programs run by root
from writing into the Nix store.

* 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.
