From 07ffdc28629e537c3811f86b83a93655b73909ec Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001
From: Eelco Dolstra <e.dolstra@tudelft.nl>
Date: Fri, 29 Jan 2010 12:22:58 +0000
Subject: * Added an option "fsync-metadata" to fsync() changes to  
 /nix/var/nix/db. * Removed the function writeStringToFile since it does
 (almost) the   same thing as writeFile.
