Motivation for this change

The last update has been in 2014 (to 9.2) but a major new release has came out since then (10.x).

Additional notes from commit:

See discussion at https://discourse.nixos.org/t/6776
but to sum up:

The portable C source and Windows binaries are not
available in the latest MIT Scheme release
(see https://www.gnu.org/software/mit-scheme/release.html )
Warning: Locale seems not configured
hence the option to build from source has been
removed from default.nix. Although there is a
source package included in the release (in lieu of
the portable C source), there is a caveat:

Note that you cannot build a working system from the
source unless you have a working MIT/GNU Scheme
compiler to do the compilation. (This doesn't apply
to the portable C source, which requires only a C
compiler.) This means that if the above binaries
don't work on your system, it is pointless to try
building a custom set of binaries from the source
code.

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 (Ubuntu 18.04.3 LTS)
  • 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)
/nix/store/gyszp2r7dl84n8sry6k89c1as74b993p-mit-scheme-9.2	 622.7M
/nix/store/906m1g2z7qncvzcplfys4sqxzw3fxay4-mit-scheme-10.1.10	 273.3M
  • Ensured that relevant documentation is up to date
  • Fits CONTRIBUTING.md. (To the best of my knowledge.)

Sorry about earlier - was under the impression that I did rebase. Thanks!
