Actually, the user environment builder is part of Nix itself. The buildenv
thing in Nixpkgs is a fork of that (yes, very ugly) used to make the system path
in NixOS.
I've been thinking about making it possible to change the user environment
builder without having to upgrade Nix. For instance, nix-env could check to see
if there is a package named "build-env" in its input expressions and use that if
available. Or it could allow you to install one explicitly.
