Motivation for this change

It's a trivial derivation, no need to build remotely (it's slower that
way).

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.

So what's the purpose of this change? What's supposed to be with all of the derivations that use this function?

I don't know about other derivations, but from my quick testing, this is faster to build locally than remotely, even when the remote machine is on gigabit network and is more powerful than the local machine.
