Subject: * Applied rbroek's patch from the branch at  
 https://svn.cs.uu.nl:12443/repos/trace/buildfarm-control/trunk/ext/nix/,  
 with some modifications.  This allows `nix-env -qa' to show the   attribute
 path that can be used to unambiguously install a package   using `nix-env -i
 -A'.  Example:

    $ nix-env -f top-level/all-packages.nix -qaA subversion xorg-server
    subversionWithJava  subversion-1.2.3
    subversion          subversion-1.3.2
    subversion14        subversion-1.4.0pre-rc1
    xorg.xorgserver     xorg-server-1.1.0
