This is all work of Marc Weber <marco-oweber@gmx.de>, except for a few nitpicks.
Tested space blowup: IMHO negligible to headers and similar stuff,
e.g. the firefox closure (reported by du) grows from 560 to 579 MB.
Saving space should be handled separately,
e.g. we have the multiple-outputs branch.
See #490 discussion.
This reverts commit 1278859d31, reversing

x-updates is supposed to merge after stdenv-updates, so let's test it
Conflicts:
pkgs/development/libraries/gtk+/2.x.nix (both updated, taking newer)
pkgs/development/libraries/mesa/default.nix (taking nativeBuildInputs)
Merge conflicts:
* unzip (almost trivial)
* dvswitch (trivial)
* gmp (copied result of `git merge`)
The last item introduced gmp-5.0.3, thus full rebuild.
+ensureDir->mkdir -p in TeX packages was catched by git but not svn.

gtkLibs224.gtk actually propagates libpng etc. through gdk_pixbuf,
so using gtk.libpng etc. makes no sense.
Remove unused 'inherit lib*;' in gtk.
svn path=/nixpkgs/trunk/; revision=29383
* Added gdk-pixbuf, which has been revived and is required by GTK+.
* Don't install the documentation of aforementioned packages. This
cuts 56 MiB off the closure of GTK+-based packages. It wasn't
really useful anyway because it's not installed in a way that allows
users to find it easily on NixOS. And if you want it, it's faster
to Google it.

development/libraries/{glib,gtk+,pango,atk,...}. Done for glib/gtk+
1.2. Also deleted some obsolete, unused versions (gtkLibs 2.10,
2.12, and 2.14).
svn path=/nixpkgs/trunk/; revision=17992
* Make builders unexecutable by removing the hash-bang line and
execute permission.
* Convert calls to `derivation' to `mkDerivation'.
* Remove `system' and `stdenv' attributes from calls to
`mkDerivation'. These transformations were all done automatically,
so it is quite possible I broke stuff.
* Put the `mkDerivation' function in stdenv/generic.

builders for typical Autoconf-style to be much shorten, e.g.,
. $stdenv/setup
genericBuild
The generic builder does lots of stuff automatically:
- Unpacks source archives specified by $src or $srcs (it knows about
gzip, bzip2, tar, zip, and unpacked source trees).
- Determines the source tree.
- Applies patches specified by $patches.
- Fixes libtool not to search for libraries in /lib etc.
- Runs `configure'.
- Runs `make'.
- Runs `make install'.
- Strips debug information from static libraries.
- Writes nested log information (in the format accepted by
`log2xml').
There are also lots of hooks and variables to customise the generic
builder. See `stdenv/generic/docs.txt'.
* Adapted the base packages (i.e., the ones used by stdenv) to use the
generic builder.
* We now use `curl' instead of `wget' to download files in `fetchurl'.
* Neither `curl' nor `wget' are part of stdenv. We shouldn't
encourage people to download stuff in builders (impure!).
* Updated some packages.
* `buildinputs' is now `buildInputs' (but the old name also works).
* `findInputs' in the setup script now prevents inputs from being
processed multiple times (which could happen, e.g., if an input was
a propagated input of several other inputs; this caused the size
variables like $PATH to blow up exponentially in the worst case).
* Patched GNU Make to write nested log information in the format
accepted by `log2xml'. Also, prior to writing the build command,
Make now writes a line `building X' to indicate what is being
built. This is unfortunately often obscured by the gigantic tool
invocations in many Makefiles. The actual build commands are marked
`unimportant' so that they don't clutter pages generated by
`log2html'.
