All is in the title :) I guess when pill 17 was first written overlays didn't exist yet, but given nix-pills is now official documentation, maybe it'd be a good...
This article is awesome. https://matthewbauer.us/blog/beginners-guide-to-cross.html Something similar in nix pills would be great! cc @matthewbauer

1. After running `nix-build '' -A stdenv` I get no `propagated-user-env-packages` in `result` directory. 2. Link to https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/blob/master/pkgs/stdenv/generic/default.nix#L155 doesn't point to `mkDerivation` anymore, probably it should point at https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/blob/master/pkgs/stdenv/generic/make-derivation.nix#L145 ?
