These two shouldn’t be necessary. Glibc is already in the include path.

Make sure you have an assertion for stdenv without glibc. Just do something like:
assert stdenv ? glibc;

I didn't know what to do for the .../include/linux/ folder, looked around nixpkgs and found two patterns:
linuxHeadersstdenv.glibc.dev
Because of what you're saying, I now think that linuxHeaders is the better alternative since it would work without glibc, am I right? (I assumed so in my last commit).

I think STRIP=strip is preferred.

Using a bit of ag to grep around, I see:
- 6
STRIP=(including two from packages by the same upstream author, fbida, amtterm) - 5
export STRIP="${targetCC.bintools.bintools}/bin/${targetCC.bintools.targetPrefix}strip"(ghc) - 2
STRIP=-s - 1
STRIP=${stdenv.cc.bintools.targetPrefix}strip - 1
STRIP=strip - 1 replacement of
STRIP=by#STRIP=
And other misc:
- -DCMAKE_STRIP=$(command -v $crossConfig-strip)
Using STRIP=strip leads to:
installing
install flags: install SHELL=/nix/store/xn5gv3lpfy91yvfy9b0i7klfcxh9xskz-bash-4.4-p19/bin/bash prefix=\$\(out\) STRIP=strip
install -d /nix/store/iw7g8gmal9bafsnsi5qxgp238chz8y3h-input-utils-1.3/bin /nix/store/iw7g8gmal9bafsnsi5qxgp238chz8y3h-input-utils-1.3/share/man/man8
install strip lsinput input-events input-kbd input-send input-recv /nix/store/iw7g8gmal9bafsnsi5qxgp238chz8y3h-input-utils-1.3/bin
install: cannot stat 'strip': No such file or directory
make: *** [GNUmakefile:39: install] Error 1
After looking at the source, the mk/Variables.mk#n31 file explains it all. That STRIP variable isn't for the strip binary, but for an option for install.
-s, --strip
strip symbol tables
The stdenv sets the environment STRIP to strip, which well, given it is used like install $STRIP would try to install [./]strip which doesn't exist.
The STRIP= bit was taken (IIRC) from the debian package description, or the archlinux PKGBUILD (I let that package sit in my local overlay for 5 months!).

Motivation for this change
Adds @kraxel's input, as input-utils, the name commonly used in other distributions.
This includes the
lsinpututility (among others), which can be used to list information the different input devices found under/dev/input/. This is useful e.g. when wanting to find the input device file for a joypad or for actkbd.Things done
