Eelco Dolstra baec8f5b38 * stdenv.mkDerivation now takes an optional attribute "meta" that
contains arbitrary information about a package, like this:

  meta = {
    homepage = "http://gcc.gnu.org/";
    license = "GPL/LGPL";
    description = "GNU Compiler Collection, 4.0.x";
  };

  The "meta" attribute is not passed to the actual derivation
  operation, so it's not a dependency --- changes to "meta" attributes
  don't trigger a recompilation.

  Now we have to standardise some useful attributes ;-)

Armijn Hemel bdf35869f6 make sure we can find things like mips-linux-ar, mips-linux-strip, and so on.
Even though you could just inherit binutils it is conceptually cleaner (I
think) to make these tools available here.

Armijn Hemel 508cd3a3e8 add a wrapper for cross compilers, which makes the correct link to the cross compiler. Only works for "gcc", haven't tried for g++ and the others
