* nix-build: default to `./default.nix' if no paths are specified.
...
So when using Nix as a build tool, you can just say `nix-build' and
it will build the top-level derivation defined in `default.nix'.

* New language feature: with expressions.
...
The expression `with E1; E2' evaluates to E2 with all bindings in
the attribute set E1 substituted. E.g.,
with {x = 123;}; x
evaluates to 123. That is, the attribute set E1 is in scope in E2.
This is particularly useful when importing files containing lots
definitions. E.g., instead of
let {
inherit (import ./foo.nix) a b c d e f;
body = ... a ... f ...;
}
we can now say
with import ./foo.nix;
... a ... f ...
I.e., we don't have to say what variables should be brought into scope.
