Hurray! This is the first time chromium is working with NSS _and_ is able to
verify certificates using the root certificates built in into NSS.
Optimally it would use certs from OPENSSL_X509_CERT_FILE, but at least it's
working, so let's add that at some later point.
Before, the entire directory was deleted and recreated, which fails if we want
to sign libraries (shlibsign is obviously deleted in that step as well), so we
delete everything but "nss-config" on postFixup.
This adds a patch from Debian, as they're already have security modules from NSS
in it's own library directory rather than /usr/lib{,64}/ and patch in loading of
libsoftokn as well.
The patch and our own fix of the patch (well, they hardcode Debian specific
stuff in there) ensures that SECMOD_AddNewModule() will find the right module
from the derivation's output path, so the built-in CA root certificates are
recognized and verified correctly.
Running NSS in FIPS mode is only possible if the libraries are signed correctly,
so we're doing this in the postFixup hook, to insure nothing gets altered after
that phase.

First of all, let's remove that redundant BUILD_OPT variable.
This variable already is in makeFlags, so we really don't want it to be lurking
around in the attribute set of the derivation, and it annoys me for being there
for days.
We now state build targets explicitly rather than relying on "nss_build_all".
This makes NSPR_CONFIG_STATUS and the touch of build_nspr stamp obsolete, as
only nss_build_all includes build_nspr.
In addition, we don't need the -lz hack anymore, as this has been fixed in
recent NSS versions, so we can completly remove the postBuild hook.
And while we're at it, we're removing those outdated build instructions as well,
especially because we don't and can't follow official building guidelines
anymore, as those are difficult to apply to Nix.
This is a compatibility module which adds suport for PEM certificates used by
OpenSSL and compatible libraries. The module gets built but isn't used at the
moment, so we're going to work on integration of it later.
Let's use system SQLite library, which makes sense anyway. More importantly
because it conflicts with the sqlite package, as NSS is building this as a
shared library aswell.
So to begin with fixing NSS let's get to the latest upstream release and start
fixing, so we won't carry around historic crap we then will throw away anyway.
Please note that this update changes the directory structure quite a bit. In
particular, the file "/etc/bash_completion" no longer exists, which means that
shell code which relies on that path must be updated. I'll commit appropriate
changes for NixOS in a moment.
virtualbox: Fix build for manual kernel.
This should fix building VirtualBox against kernels made using the new
manual kernel configuration system.
This has been tested with the standard nixpkgs kernel as well.
