[Nix-dev] Merging 'stdenv-updates' on Jan. 20th

[Sander van der Burg - EWI]

I couldn't get Perl working yet on the *BSD platforms (I'll get a strange error about missing -lgdbm).  Btw. I also noticed that nobody considered upgrading Perl to 5.10.1, which is already released for a while now. While I could try to upgrade the perl package myself, I don't know all the stuff very well such as the patch that is applied to it. Could anyone have a look at it or maybe assist me with this?

Can somebody summarise the changes in the stdenv branch?  In particular the
cross-compilation stuff, since that seems a potentially disruptive (i.e.
cross-cutting) change.
