* Change the scoping of "inherit (e) ..." in recs so that the
...
attributes of the rec are in scope of `e'. This is useful in
expressions such as
rec {
lib = import ./lib;
inherit (lib) concatStrings;
}
It does change the semantics of expressions such as
let x = {y = 1;}; in rec { x = {y = 2;}; inherit (x) y; }.y
This now returns 2 instead of 1. However, no code in Nixpkgs or
NixOS seems to rely on the old behaviour.

* Some syntactic sugar for attribute sets: allow {x.y.z = ...;} as a
...
shorthand for {x = {y = {z = ...;};};}. This is especially useful
for NixOS configuration files, e.g.
{
services = {
sshd = {
enable = true;
port = 2022;
};
};
}
can now be written as
{
services.sshd.enable = true;
services.sshd.port = 2022;
}
However, it is currently not permitted to write
{
services.sshd = {enable = true;};
services.sshd.port = 2022;
}
as this is considered a duplicate definition of `services.sshd'.

* Check for duplicate attributes in fixAttrs, rather than doing a
...
separate traversal after parsing. Likewise, check for duplicate
pattern variables right away.

* Disallow equality tests between attribute sets. This was always
...
broken, but now the evaluator checks for it to prevent Nix
expressions from relying on undefined behaviour. Equality tests are
implemented using a shallow pointer equality test between ATerms.
However, because attribute sets are lazy and contain position
information, this can give false positives. For instance,
previously
let y = {x = 1;}; in y == y
evaluated to true, while the equivalent expression
{x = 1;} == {x = 1;}
evaluated to false. So disallow these tests for now. (Eventually
we may want to implement deep equality tests for attribute sets,
like lib.eqStrict.)
* Idem: disallow comparisons between functions.
* Implemented deep comparisons of lists. This had the same problem as
attribute sets - the elements in the list weren't evaluated. For
instance,
["xy"] == [("x" + "y")]
evaluated to false. Now it works properly.

the local system type, it would send all builds to the *first*
machine of the appropriate type.
