Lluís Batlle i Rossell 5bae851b1e Merging from trunk. I had to give away some structure to build the native
sheevaplug kernel, so the kernel does not build in the sheevaplug right now.
I will try to fix that in next commits.

Eelco Dolstra c3e80cbc9f * Get User-Mode Linux to build with a newer kernel. Yes, SHELL really
has to be "/bin/sh" - other values such as "sh" or "bash" or "$(type
  -tP sh)" cause a build error:

  LD      .tmp_vmlinux1
  /nix/store/1yv8i1m76cvwk5w5i5wrk4gj5zyfj6vh-binutils-2.19.1/bin/ld:arch/um/kernel/vmlinux.lds:1: ignoring invalid character `#' in expression
  /nix/store/1yv8i1m76cvwk5w5i5wrk4gj5zyfj6vh-binutils-2.19.1/bin/ld:arch/um/kernel/vmlinux.lds:1: syntax error
  collect2: ld returned 1 exit status

  This is caused by Bash 4.0
  (http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=13343).

Eelco Dolstra 03e45e0cb4 * Added a script to generate the kernel configuration.
`generate-config.pl' runs `make config' to generate a Linux kernel
  configuration file.  For each question (i.e. kernel configuration
  option), unless an override is provided, it answers "m" if possible,
  and otherwise uses the default answer (as determined by the default
  config for the architecture).  This is safer than allmodconfig,
  which answers "y" everywhere it can't answer "m" and thus ends up
  enabling a lot of experimental or debug options.  (For this reason,
  a configuration generated by allmodconfig must be carefully checked
  with every new release to ensure that nothing dangerous is enabled.
  The default config should be safer wrt new kernel releases.)

  Overrides are specified in the `config' argument to generic.nix,
  which is a string that contains lines such as `EXT2_FS_POSIX_ACL y'.
  The script warns about ignored options, and aborts if `make config'
  selects an answer inconsistent with the one in `config'.  This
  allows us to be sure that `make config' doesn't silently override
  our configuration values (e.g., depending on other options, it will
  set FB_TILEBLITTING to "y" even if we want it to be "n").

Lluís Batlle i Rossell 4b27d28701 Porting changes from stdenv-updates into this branch.
This comes from:
svn diff  ^/nixpkgs/trunk/@18255 ^/nixpkgs/branches/stdenv-updates/ > diff
patch -p0 < diff
and then adding into svn all files new from the patch.

trunk@18255 comes from the last time I updated stdenv-updates from trunk.
