types.
(%nscd-default-caches, %nscd-default-configuration): New variables.

2014-12-06 | guix: scripts: Parse $GUIX_BUILD_OPTIONS separately....Appending to "raw" args broke optional parameters in 'guix package -I'

parsing each set of options on its own and append resulting alists
together afterwards.
