Eelco Dolstra 12de0466fe Add trace to build errors during import-from-derivation
Example:

error: builder for '/nix/store/9ysqfidhipyzfiy54mh77iqn29j6cpsb-failing.drv' failed with exit code 1;
       last 1 log lines:
       > FAIL
       For full logs, run 'nix log /nix/store/9ysqfidhipyzfiy54mh77iqn29j6cpsb-failing.drv'.

       … while importing '/nix/store/pfp4a4bjh642ylxyipncqs03z6kkgfvy-failing'
