implements the host support for virtio devices in Linux >= 2.6.25
guests. Network performance shows a huge improvement with
virtio_net, which should be good for the build farm (which uses
Samba/CIFS to mount the file system of the host).
* Kernel headers for 2.6.26-rc5 added to build KVM 69. Also added the
2.6.25 headers, which turned out to be too old for KVM 69.

* Some fetchurl-related refactoring. The `realCurl' attribute is
gone, `curl' is the real thing. To prevent an infinite recursion in
`fetchurl' (because it depends on curl and building curl needs
fetchurl), curl and its dependencies (openssl, zlib, perl) use
`fetchurlBoot', which is the fetchurl used by the previous bootstrap
phase (e.g. the statically linked version of curl for
stdenv-linux). So as a result you can use https:// urls almost
everywhere.
There's also some hackery to prevent a different curl from being
built in every stdenv-linux bootstrap phase (namely the
stdenv.fetchurl attribute which allows fetchurl to be overriden
everywhere).

I disabled quite a few protocols and things (NetworkManager, other stuff). If anyon wants to have them enabled, be my guest :-P

modules) together in an attribute set returned by the function
"kernelPackagesFor" that takes a kernel as argument. For instance,
kernelPackages_2_6_23 is the result of calling this function with
kernel_2_6_23.
This is necessary in NixOS to make it easier to override the kernel:
it's not enough to just specify a different kernel (via the
boot.kernel option), but you also need matching nvidiaDriver, aufs,
iwlwifi, etc. Having a single attribute set that contains all
kernel-related packages makes this much easier.
* The kernel now has a passthru attribute "features" that allows NixOS
expressions to test whether a kernel has certain features. For
instance, the externel "iwlwifi" kernel module package should only
be built on kernels < 2.6.24, as kernels >= 2.6.24 have iwlwifi
support integrated. So the NixOS expressions can do the test
"kernel.features ? iwlwifi" to see if the iwlwifi package should be
built.
Kernel patches can declare additional features. E.g., the fbsplash
patch adds a "fbSplash" feature.
