The better solution is to prevent Glibc from looking in /etc/ld.so.cache.  This
is an unintended side-effect of r30069:

* Build Glibc with sysconfdir set to /etc.  This causes it to look for
  ‘localtime’ (the default time zone definition) in /etc rather than
  $out/etc, allowing us to override the time zone globally in NixOS.

Before this change, our Glibc looked in $out/etc/ld.so.cache, which didn't exist.
