Our use of boost::coroutine2 depends on -lboost_context, which in turn depends on `-lboost_thread`, which in turn depends on `-lboost_system`. I suspect that this builds on nix only because of low-level hacks like NIX_LDFLAGS. This commit passes the proper linker flags, thus fixing bootstrap builds on non-nix distributions like Ubuntu 16.04. With these changes, I can build Nix on Ubuntu 16.04 using: ./bootstrap.sh ./configure --prefix=$HOME/editline-prefix \ --disable-doc-gen \ CXX=g++-7 \ --with-boost=$HOME/boost-prefix \ EDITLINE_CFLAGS=-I$HOME/editline-prefix/include \ EDITLINE_LIBS=-leditline \ LDFLAGS=-L$HOME/editline-prefix/lib make where * g++-7 comes from gcc-7 from https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-toolchain-r/+archive/ubuntu/test, * editline 1.14 from https://github.com/troglobit/editline/releases/tag/1.14.0 was installed into `$HOME/editline-prefix` (because Ubuntu 16.04's `editline` is too old to have the function nix uses), * boost 1.66 from https://www.boost.org/doc/libs/1_66_0/more/getting_started/unix-variants.html was installed into $HOME/boost-prefix (because Ubuntu 16.04 only has 1.58) |

Nix, the purely functional package manager
Nix is a new take on package management that is fairly unique. Because of its 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.
