Motivation for this change

Running NixOS on a Sheevaplug via cross-compilation.

This is a small batch of changes that either adds support for ancient arm (armv5tel-linux) or improves cross compilation in general. Submitted as a single pull request, since each change is very small.

The issue for texinfoInteractive affects all cross builds, for example ElvishJerricco/cross-nixos-aarch64#1

Things done
  • Tested using sandboxing (nix.useSandbox on NixOS, or option sandbox in nix.conf on non-NixOS linux)
  • Built on platform(s)
    • NixOS
    • macOS
    • other Linux distributions
  • Tested via one or more NixOS test(s) if existing and applicable for the change (look inside nixos/tests)
  • Tested compilation of all pkgs that depend on this change using nix-shell -p nixpkgs-review --run "nixpkgs-review wip"
  • Tested execution of all binary files (usually in ./result/bin/)
  • Determined the impact on package closure size (by running nix path-info -S before and after)
  • Ensured that relevant documentation is up to date
  • Fits CONTRIBUTING.md.
