I was using the gcc from nix. The problem appears to be that /usr/lib
path was search; instead of using glibc from /nix/store the one in
/usr/lib was being used. This seems to solve the problem:

export NIX_CFLAGS_COMPILE="-L/home/visser/.nix-profile/include -I/usr/include"
export NIX_CFLAGS_LINK="-L/home/visser/.nix-profile/lib/ -L/usr/lib -L/lib"
export NIX_LDFLAGS="-L/home/visser/.nix-profile/lib/ -L/usr/lib -L/lib"

One would expect that gcc from nix would/should look at the nix store first.
