After some discussion on #nixos, the consensus is that expressions should not
provide functionality that is not part of the package itself, i.e. pythonFull
ought to include only those extensions that are part of the python
distribution.

The latter package contains Tcl/Tk and whatnot else, so using that
expression as a built input was a bad idea. I'm sorry.
The dependency on talloc is gone, too. It wasn't used, apparently, but
it broke the build on Darwin because talloc doesn't compile there.

This commit adds the option 'services.syslogd.defaultConfig', which is
the main syslog.conf file used by the daemon. Like before, That file can
be extended by means of 'services.syslogd.extraConfig'. Users who want a
completely different configuration, however, can re-define defaultConfig
to their liking.
Furthermore, the option services.syslogd.tty' is now optional: setting
its value to the empty string "" disables logging to TTY altogether.

The sshfsFuse package -- which is part of the system profile already -- doesn't
work without fuse. It tries to run /var/setuid-wrappers/fusermount, which then
can't find fusermount. Adding fuse to the system profile remedies this problem.

I have no idea whether that's going to work, and I can't test it for
lack of access to a MacOS X machine, but think chances are pretty good
that this is going to succeed.

Packages that need util-linux-ng as a build-time or run-time dependency
typically refer to the attribute 'utillinux', which is the expression with
the least possible set of features.
Users, however, who run "nix-env -i util-linux", don't want that version,
because it lacks support for perl and curses. In other words, users want
utillinuxngCurses by default, which is what this change accomplishes.

Packages that need git as build-time or run-time dependency typically refer to
the attribute 'git', which is the expression with the least possible set of
features.
Users, however, who run "nix-env -i git", don't want that version, because it
lacks support for SVN, for sending e-mail, and it doesn't include the GUI. In
other words, users want gitFull by default, which is what this change
accomplishes.

Both build inputs 'monotone' and 'git' are non-null in nixpkgs, so their
respective store paths were always included in the generated wrapper
script -- even if 'monotoneSupport' and 'gitSupport' were false.

* Build maxima with sbcl for better performance.
* Enable the regression test suite.
* Configure $PATH at start-up so that maxima knows how to find sbcl,
wish, rlwrap, and gnuplot.
* Move installed documentation and Emacs lisp modules into standard
locations.
* Enable parallel building.

The expression can't build on Cygwin because it wants to know the version of
Perl that is being used. On Cygwin, however, we don't know that because we're
using sysPerl.
