Eelco Dolstra 16c0047575 * Use a 2-stage bootstrap for creating the standard build environment
(stdenv) on Linux.  The previous 1-stage bootstrap was insufficient,
  because the tools in stdenv where built by native tools.  For
  instance, the Nix bash had a reference to /lib/libncurses.  This
  doesn't happen with a 2-stage bootstrap, since the bash built in
  stage 2 will be built with the gcc built in stage 1, which doesn't
  search in the "standard" locations.

  Motto: "Disparaging the boot is a bootable offense."
