e.g.,
$ nix-env -i -A subversion xorg.xorgserver
The main advantage over using symbolic names is that using attribute
names is unambiguous and much, much faster.

* nix-build: default to `./default.nix' if no paths are specified.
...
So when using Nix as a build tool, you can just say `nix-build' and
it will build the top-level derivation defined in `default.nix'.
