Derive Emacs nix-mode from prog-mode.
...
Emacs 24.1 introduced the notion of "basic major modes" and among these
is prog-mode, see section "23.2.5 Basic Major Modes" in the Emacs
manual. The prog-mode basic major mode is recommended as a base for
derived major modes that are intended for editing source code.

Apparently, turning on utf8 encoding on stderr changes its flushing

Add disallowedReferences / disallowedRequisites

For the "stdenv accidentally referring to bootstrap-tools", it seems
easier to specify the path that we don't want to depend on, e.g.
disallowedRequisites = [ bootstrapTools ];

Use unshare() instead of clone()
...
It turns out that using clone() to start a child process is unsafe in
a multithreaded program. It can cause the initialisation of a build
child process to hang in setgroups(), as seen several times in the
build farm:
The reason is that Glibc thinks that the other threads of the parent
exist in the child, so in setxid_mark_thread() it tries to get a futex
that has been acquired by another thread just before the clone(). With
fork(), Glibc runs pthread_atfork() handlers that take care of this
(in particular, __reclaim_stacks()). But clone() doesn't do that.
Fortunately, we can use fork()+unshare() instead of clone() to set up
private namespaces.
