libxslt has optional dependencies which may be found in /usr or
/usr/local on platforms that have a native stdenv. With those features
enabled, the build generated binaries that depend on libraries outside
of the store. In this particular case, the NixOS channel had binaries
for FreeBSD that depended on libgcrypt, apparently because that packages
happens to be installed outside of Nix on the build machine. On other
machines, however, those binaries failed with unresolvable references.

xsltproc from downloading DTDs from the network, which is impure.
This caused a lot of problems with Gnome builds in the build farm,
because those downloads are slow and would sometimes fail.
The setup hook also sets up $XML_CATALOG_FILES.

* Make builders unexecutable by removing the hash-bang line and
execute permission.
* Convert calls to `derivation' to `mkDerivation'.
* Remove `system' and `stdenv' attributes from calls to
`mkDerivation'. These transformations were all done automatically,
so it is quite possible I broke stuff.
* Put the `mkDerivation' function in stdenv/generic.
