I dream of combining Aboriginal Linux[1] and nixos. Aboriginal
provides a minimal native build environment (gcc, make...) for a bunch
of architectures. All that's needed then is to have a (native) distro
build system that can bootstrap itself. (Nixos is the only distro I
know of that seem to care about this kind of bootstrapping.)
