* Fix a huge gaping hole in nix-env w.r.t. the garbage collector.
...
Nix-env failed to call addPermRoot(), which is necessary to safely
add a new root. So if nix-env started after and finished before the
garbage collector, the user environment (plus all other new stuff)
it built might be garbage collected, leading to a dangling symlink
chain in ~/.nix-profile...
* Be more explicit if we block on the GC lock ("waiting for the big
garbage collector lock...").
* Don't loop trying to create a new generation. It's not necessary
anymore since profiles are locked nowadays.

On cygwin, disable the check that the output is not group or world

with some modifications. This allows `nix-env -qa' to show the

$ nix-env -f top-level/all-packages.nix -qaA subversion xorg-server

subversion subversion-1.3.2

* Support the --attr / -A flag in nix-env as well. So now we can do,
