c8d1774f09 * Speed up the initialisation of /etc in the activation script a lot
by doing it in Perl instead of in Bash.  Forking a zillion times is
  slow.

f729f12e4e Some cleanups in the activation script:
* Moved some scriptlets to the appropriate modules.
* Put the scriptlet that sets the default path at the start, since it
  never makes sense not to have it there.  It no longer needs to be
  declared as a dependency.
* If a scriptlet has no dependencies, it can be denoted as a plain
  string (i.e., `noDepEntry' is not needed anymore).

11022e8d9f * Back out r17946 and 17948 because it doesn't work. I've seen it
fail to update /etc twice now.  It's also unnecessarily complex
  IMHO (see nix-dev).

893f13bb14 Some boot optimisations attempted. My system boots a few times faster now, and I cannot see how these can break things.

88c505c9e0 * make-etc.sh: fixed the duplicate entry check.
* Inlined make-etc.nix since it's a trivial function.

6802a75076 * nixos-rebuild: replaced some environment variables with options
(e.g. --install-grub instead of $NIXOS_INSTALL_GRUB).  Also support
  some nix-build options (e.g. --show-trace and -j).
