c9baba9212 Fix many package descriptions
(My OCD kicked in today...)

Remove repeated package names, capitalize first word, remove trailing
periods and move overlong descriptions to longDescription.

I also simplified some descriptions as well, when they were particularly
long or technical, often based on Arch Linux' package descriptions.

I've tried to stay away from generated expressions (and I think I
succeeded).

Some specifics worth mentioning:
 * cron, has "Vixie Cron" in its description. The "Vixie" part is not
   mentioned anywhere else. I kept it in a parenthesis at the end of the
   description.

 * ctags description started with "Exuberant Ctags ...", and the
   "exuberant" part is not mentioned elsewhere. Kept it in a parenthesis
   at the end of description.

 * nix has the description "The Nix Deployment System". Since that
   doesn't really say much what it is/does (especially after removing
   the package name!), I changed that to "Powerful package manager that
   makes package management reliable and reproducible" (borrowed from
   nixos.org).

 * Tons of "GNU Foo, Foo is a [the important bits]" descriptions
   is changed to just [the important bits]. If the package name doesn't
   contain GNU I don't think it's needed to say it in the description
   either.

6b78544add binutils: enable gold by default
This doesn't change the default but makes gold available to packages
that might want to use it.

Required switching to the gzipped tarball for bison, as xz isn't
available in the early bootstrap.

4a1c721c01 Changing every reference from mips64-linux to mips64el-linux. That's
what the new nix thinks the fuloong is.

Anyone having the old nix should use a nixpkgs previous to this change to build
the new nix. And then, with the new nix, he can use any newer nixpkgs revision.

0e353fdd5a * Don't use substite() here, because the bash binary in the bootstrap
tools (4.1.2) seems to have performance problems doing pattern
  substitutions on large strings (it takes several minutes on
  binutils' Makefile.in).  Bash 4.2 seems to be fine.

cfde88976b * Streamline the stdenv bootstrap and resulting closure by removing
some redundant builds (e.g., GMP was built three times).
* Updated GMP to 5.0.2.
* Updated PPL to 0.11.2.
* Remove ad hoc flags to build GCC's dependencies statically.
  Instead, use the ‘makeStaticLibraries’ stdenv adapter.
* Build GMP with C++ support by default.

7bbb1ad569 * Revert to binutils 2.21.1. Binutils 2.22 changes the default
handling of dynamic libraries from --copy-dt-needed-entries to
  --no-copy-dt-needed-entries, which breaks stuff (e.g. GCC, see
  http://hydra.nixos.org/build/1608471).  So stick with 2.21.1 for
  now.

c1620ef552 Fixing a stdenv problem... 'binutils' where linked with zlib from
bootstrap-tools, because zlib was there and binutils were not having an
explicit buildInput for zlib. Due to that, we ended up with stdenv
(gcc-wrapper) depending on bootstrap-tools as runtime dependency.

18372e5a56 Reverting the patch that disabled using the 'binutils snapshot', because it's
needed for the fuloong minipc. It was not enough having the loongson2f patches;
only having the patches, we got troubles building cups with a segfault on the
dynamic loader running their 'genstrings' program.  And if sysvinit needs newer
binutils (I can't remember why, but I wrote it in the all-packages.nix before),
then let's use the snapshot.

As a note about "why this snapshot" (civodul was interested), when I knew that
we needed an unreleased version of binutils I went to download the snapshot of
the day. And it worked. This is all the story.

d67f1d269e * binutils creates hard links to the programs in $out/bin in
$out/<platform>/bin.  Because the fixup phase causes those to be
  replaced by identical copies, use symlinks instead of hardlinks.
