OCaml-safepass is a library offering facilities for the safe storage of
user passwords. By "safe" we mean that passwords are salted and hashed
using the Bcrypt algorithm. Salting prevents rainbow-table based
attacks, whereas hashing by a very time-consuming algorithm such as
Bcrypt renders brute-force password cracking impractical.

During install, the bootloader script gets run inside a chroot after the
/etc/group bind-mount is unmounted. Since we're not doing any building,
this should be safe, but really nix should just not care if the group
does not exist when no build is needed.
Fixes #5494
Since the 4.2.8 upgrade, ntpd is broken on NixOS:
Dec 28 19:06:54 hagbard ntpd[27723]: giving up resolving host 1.nixos.pool.ntp.org: Servname not supported for ai_socktype (-8)
This appears to be because DNS resolution doesn't work in chroots
anymore (due to /etc being missing). So disable chroots for now. It's
probably better to use systemd's containment facilities anyway.
Note that elm has a different package split: The old Elm 0.13 package
is now elm-compiler, elm-make and elm-package.
Instead of invoking "elm" one now has to use "elm-make".
I kept the 0.13 version of elm around in case someone depends
on it.
Uuseg is an OCaml library for segmenting Unicode text. It implements the
locale independent Unicode text segmentation algorithms to detect
grapheme cluster, word and sentence boundaries and the Unicode line
breaking algorithm to detect line break opportunities.

Tested on KDE4, fixed with xfce, and was used with GNOME before.

I did not test e19, as it won't build, probably due to #5392 @shlevy.
CC maintainer @matejc.
Also removed a forgotten unused patch.
Build atlas with the generic options recommended by the upstream
documentation for distributions. The expression now takes the parameter
'threads' which configures the number of threads atlas will use. The
default is to build serial atlas ('threads = "0"'). The expression also
takes the parameter 'cacheEdge' which is the L2 cache per core, in
bytes. This reduces build time because the cache size doesn't need to be
detected. It also reduces impurity, since different build nodes on Hydra
may have different hardware. It is set to 256k by default, which is
recommended for distributions by the upstream documentation.
