Hi Guix!

While working on tree-sitter I realized our node packages didn't
cross-compile [0] so I thought I'd give it a go, here's a patch!

Note that fundamentally, because of how the V8 JavaScript engine
bootstraps itself, cross-compiling only works for platforms with the
same bitness. So a 32-bit binary cannot be produced on a 64-bit
system, for example on x86_64:

--8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8---
# Build OK.
$ guix build --target=aarch64-linux-gnu node

# Will fail...
$ guix build --target=arm-linux-gnueabihf node

# ... unless the host is 32-bit.
$ guix build --system=i686-linux --target=arm-linux-gnueabihf node
--8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8---

I'm not sure there's any way to express this restriction in the package
definition, it would be good to fail in a useful way, any thoughts? I
suspect a mechanism for this isn't really worth the effort, I don't know
of any other packages like this.

As a drive-by, the esbuild package didn't build on 32-bit systems so I
attached another patch for that. It was due to the build system using
the "-race" option to detect race conditions in the tests, and this
mechanism only works on 64-bit platforms.

Thanks,
Pierre

Subject: [PATCH 1/2] gnu: node: Enable cross-compilation.

Node runs parts of itself on the host for bootstraping therefore for
cross-compiling support we need to fidle with the rpath in the build system,
as well as duplicating some of the dependencies as native-inputs and inputs.

* gnu/pakcages/node.scm (node)[arguments]: Refer to /bin/sh and /bin/env
directly instead of using (which).  Add new 'set-bootstrap-host-rpath phase
to correctly set the rpath for binaries that are meant to run on the host.
Pass --cross-compiling and --dest-cpu to configure script if needed.  Set the
CC_host, CXX_host, CC, CCX and PKG_CONFIG variable for cross-compilation.
Refer to the host python.  Do not return #t from any phases.
[native-inputs]: Add c-ares, http-parser, icu4c, libuv, nghttp2, openssl and
zlib.  Remove which.
[inputs]: Add bash and coreutils.
(llhttp-bootstrap)[arguments]: Refer to esbuild via (or native-inputs inputs).
(node-lts)[arguments]: Add new 'set-bootstrap-host-rpath phase to correctly
set the rpath for host binaries.  Pass --cross-compiling and --dest-cpu to
configure script if needed.  Set the CC_host, CXX_host, CCX and PKG_CONFIG
variable for cross-compilation.  Refer to the host python.  Do not return #t
from any phases.  Refer to /bin/sh and /bin/env directly instead of
using (which).  Do not return #t from any phases.
[native-inputs]: Hardcode native inputs instead of inheriting them from node.
[inputs]: Add bash and coreutils.
