8be1979f1a Remove the --max-links GC option 
We don't need this anymore now that current filesystems support more
than 32,000 files in a directory.

b006a31d52 Drop the externals directory 
Nix now requires SQLite and bzip2 to be pre-installed.  SQLite is
detected using pkg-config.  We required DBD::SQLite anyway, so
depending on SQLite is not a big problem.

The --with-bzip2, --with-openssl and --with-sqlite flags are gone.

4e624849b6 * Added a command ‘nix-store --print-env $drvpath’ that prints out the 
environment of the given derivation in a format that can be sourced
  by the shell, e.g.

  $ eval "$(nix-store --print-env $(nix-instantiate /etc/nixos/nixpkgs -A pkg))"
  $ NIX_BUILD_TOP=/tmp
  $ source $stdenv/setup

  This is especially useful to reproduce the environment used to build
  a package outside of its builder for development purposes.

  TODO: add a nix-build option to do the above and fetch the
  dependencies of the derivation as well.

2a3f4110c5 * nix-build: put the temporary derivation symlink in a temporary 
directory rather than the current directory.
* nix-build: --drv-link now implies --add-drv-link.

e6cb3d0a0d * Added a command ‘nix-store --verify-paths PATHS’ to check whether 
the contents of any of the given store paths have been modified.
  E.g.

    $ nix-store --verify-path $(nix-store -qR /var/run/current-system)
    path `/nix/store/m2smyiwbxidlprfxfz4rjlvz2c3mg58y-etc' was modified! expected hash `fc87e271c5fdf179b47939b08ad13440493805584b35e3014109d04d8436e7b8', got `20f1a47281b3c0cbe299ce47ad5ca7340b20ab34246426915fce0ee9116483aa'

  All paths are checked; the exit code is 1 if any path has been
  modified, 0 otherwise.

1ecc97b6bd * Add a Nix expression search path feature. Paths between angle 
brackets, e.g.

    import <nixpkgs/pkgs/lib>

  are resolved by looking them up relative to the elements listed in
  the search path.  This allows us to get rid of hacks like

    import "${builtins.getEnv "NIXPKGS_ALL"}/pkgs/lib"

  The search path can be specified through the ‘-I’ command-line flag
  and through the colon-separated ‘NIX_PATH’ environment variable,
  e.g.,

    $ nix-build -I /etc/nixos ...

  If a file is not found in the search path, an error message is
  lazily thrown.

0a623a10c7 * Allow a default value in attribute selection by writing 
x.y.z or default

  (as originally proposed in
  https://mail.cs.uu.nl/pipermail/nix-dev/2009-September/002989.html).

  For instance, an expression like

    stdenv.lib.attrByPath ["features" "ckSched"] false args

  can now be written as

    args.features.ckSched or false
