The main change is that stack now needs Cabal >= 3.14. GHC 9.10
unfortunately needs a lot of coaxing to build the Setup.hs against it,
so the override is essentially specific to GHC 9.10.3 now.
(As an aside, I think the fact that we can't really apply the
constraints from setup-depends with Setup.hs is a strong argument for
adding (optional?) support for cabal-install based builds…)
this creates some eval errors that will be fixed in the next commit
done with the following script:
```fish
\#!/usr/bin/env fish
set packagesjson (nix eval --impure --json --expr '
let
lib = import ./lib;
in
import pkgs/servers/x11/xorg/default.nix (lib.mapAttrs (

if name == "lib" then
lib
else if name == "config" then
{ allowAliases = false; }
else
name
) (__functionArgs (import pkgs/servers/x11/xorg/default.nix))) { }

This is particularly relevant for us because we include
objects in haskell derivation outputs, and this fixes
reproducibility for a significant number of those.

We can assume that the user has Nix installed. Not having it in the
wrapper prevents pulling in a specific version of C++ Nix when the user
may prefer another version or Lix etc.
