Eelco Dolstra d2c58ba605 Restore the CachedFailure status code 
The removal of CachedFailure caused the value of TimedOut to change,
which broke timed-out handling in Hydra (so timed-out builds would
show up as "aborted" and would be retried, e.g. at
http://hydra.nixos.org/build/42537427).

Nix, the purely functional package manager

Nix is a new take on package management that is fairly unique. Because of it's purity aspects, a lot of issues found in traditional package managers don't appear with Nix.

To find out more about the tool, usage and installation instructions, please read the manual, which is available on the Nix website at http://nixos.org/nix/manual.

Take a look at the Hacking Section of the manual. It helps you to get started with building Nix from source.
