/* This function builds a binary tarball. The resulting binaries are
usually only useful if they are don't have any runtime dependencies
on any paths in the Nix store, since those aren't distributed in
the tarball. For instance, the binaries should be statically
linked: they can't depend on dynamic libraries in the store
(including Glibc).
The binaries are built and installed with a prefix of /usr/local by
default. They are installed by setting DESTDIR to a temporary
directory, so the Makefile of the package should support DESTDIR.
