Subject: [PATCH] * Don't provide the whole Nix store in the chroot, but only
 the   closure of the inputs.  This really enforces that there can't be any  
 undeclared dependencies on paths in the store.  This is done by   creating a
 fake Nix store and creating bind-mounts or hard-links in   the fake store for
 all paths in the closure.  After the build, the   build output is moved from
 the fake store to the real store.  TODO:   the chroot has to be on the same
 filesystem as the Nix store for   this to work, but this isn't enforced yet. 
 (I.e. it only works   currently if /tmp is on the same FS as /nix/store.)
