Allows us to see which derivations are being built in realtime. It is a bit of a hack, but it seems to work. We simply look at the environment of the child processes of nix-daemon (usually bash) and then look for the $name variable which should hold the current derivation being built. Needs root to be able to read the environ file of the different nix-daemon processes as they are owned by the nixbld* users.
