-### Option `system'
-#
-# This option specifies the canonical Nix system name of the current
-# installation, such as `i686-linux' or `powerpc-darwin'.  Nix can

-# specified here.  In general, it never makes sense to modify this
-# value from its default, since you can use it to `lie' about the
-# platform you are building on (e.g., perform a Mac OS build on a
-# Linux machine; the result would obviously be wrong).  It only makes
-# sense if the Nix binaries can run on multiple platforms, e.g.,
-# `universal binaries' that run on `powerpc-darwin' and `i686-darwin'.
