Hello, 

I use Nix on a large number of non-NixOS linux systems, and I'm looking for
easy ways to improve purity. 

A few major mechanisms come to mind for build purity:
    - userland chroot()s 
        - fakeroot (LD_PRELOAD mechanism)
        - ptrace based system call interceptors on files 
        - user-mode linux

    - output sanity checks
        - check outputs for non-pure paths

Comments?
