Eelco Dolstra f30fe65b3e * makeSourceTarball -> sourceTarball.
* Added a function binaryTarball to do a DESTDIR build into
  /usr/local.  Useful for making statically linked binaries.  However,
  it may be better to do this in a VM (since if you do it in a Nix
  build environment, you can still end up with a lot of Nix
  dependencies in your binaries, even if you do static linking).

/* This function builds a binary tarball. The resulting binaries are
usually only useful if they are don't have any runtime dependencies
on any paths in the Nix store, since those aren't distributed in
the tarball. For instance, the binaries should be statically
linked: they can't depend on dynamic libraries in the store
(including Glibc).
The binaries are built and installed with a prefix of /usr/local by
default. They are installed by setting DESTDIR to a temporary
directory, so the Makefile of the package should support DESTDIR.
