This reverts commit b5ee55f81f9f65f15f9b807b4de1380a7f477baf.
The reason is that the args attribute in this case doesn't contain the
optional attributes which are specified, see here for example:
$ nix-instantiate --eval -E '(args@{ bar ? 111, ... }: args) {}'
{ }
$
This essentially breaks all VM tests, because stage-1 is passing all
arguments but pkgs/build-support/vm/default.nix does not.

Nixpkgs is a collection of packages for the Nix package manager. It is periodically built and tested by the hydra build daemon as so-called channels. To get channel information via git, add nixpkgs-channels as a remote:
% git remote add channels git://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs-channels.git
For stability and maximum binary package support, it is recommended to maintain
custom changes on top of one of the channels, e.g. nixos-14.12 for the latest
release and nixos-unstable for the latest successful build of master:
% git remote update channels
% git rebase channels/nixos-14.12
For pull-requests, please rebase onto nixpkgs master.
NixOS linux distribution source code is located inside
nixos/ folder.
