Pill 10: make is available from the user env

[darthdeus]

The pill says

$ nix-shell hello.nix
[nix-shell]$ make
bash: make: command not found

yet in my case

[nix-shell:~/projects/pills/hello]$ make
make: *** No targets specified and no makefile found.  Stop.

so make is clearly available, but surprisingly it comes from my user env, even when launching as --pure

$ nix-shell --pure hello.nix

I find this very surprising, since the pill makes it sound like the shell is completely isolated, but it clearly is not.

this is working as intended, in the hello.nix file, there's a line:

inherit gnutar gzip gnumake gcc coreutils gawk gnused gnugrep;

gnumake package contains make, so when you use nix-shell hello.nix, you're bringing in those packages, and they will be made available even in a --pure environment.
