- Fixes#19673; it caused problems in combination with buildEnv.
- As noted, X falls back to /tmp:
https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/issues/19673#issuecomment-258871876
- Removing the directory is still required, as X would attempt to write
into it if allowed - and probably succeed in case the user set
nix.readOnlyStore = false; (X runs as root).

Using the configure option relieves us of the patch and passing the path
via the env var in many places. Also the env var may not be inherited
when components like gdm spawn new sessions.
This one was already merged into release-16.09, so let's not have the
stable branch is ahead of master and confuse things. In addition to
that, currently we have an odd situation that master has less things
actually finished building than in staging.
Conflicts:
pkgs/data/documentation/man-pages/default.nix
These are now showing up as broken builds in Hydra since 2daefaf457.
None of these compiled even in 16.03 and I think all of them are
for pretty obsolete hardware, so just mark them as broken.
(In principle the xorg generator could be made to ignore them but that
would be more work.)
The most complex problems were from dealing with switches reverted in
the meantime (gcc5, gmp6, ncurses6).
It's likely that darwin is (still) broken nontrivially.
I port the patch for esperanto symbols removed in
1be2acd1317aadc8e1a08d17312e524fb5fc2a4300 to the current
xkeyboardconfig.
(cherry picked from commit 4a830de0323e34592a36dea660d9a3ec8348964e)
... after auto-removing some kinds of files by default.
In some cases I let them be removed and in others I let them be put into
$docdev. That was more due to general indecisiveness on this question
than any reasons in the particular cases.
Now man3 is deleted if not specified otherwise,
and I don't really see a reason for X libs to produce them.
(This fixes failures due to not producing $man outputs.)
The $doc outputs are also development docs (all probably),
but I left those for now.
