The official release announcement with details about these fixes can be
found here:

Beta and stable could be also affected, although I didn't do a detailed
check whether that's the case.
As this introduces Chromium 51 as the dev version, I had to make the
following changes to make it build:
* libexif got removed, so let's do that on our end as well.
See https://codereview.chromium.org/1803883002 for details.
* Chromium doesn't seem to compile with our version of libpng, so let's
resort to the bundled libpng for now.
* site_engagement_ui.cc uses isnan outside of std namespace, so
we're fixing that in postPatch using sed.
I have successfully built all versions on i686-linux and x86_64-linux
and tested it using the VM tests.
Test reports can be found at the following evaluation of my Hydra:

Fixes: #14299
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-15.09 for the latest
release and nixos-unstable for the latest successful build of master:
% git remote update channels
% git rebase channels/nixos-15.09
For pull-requests, please rebase onto nixpkgs master.
NixOS linux distribution source code is located inside
nixos/ folder.
