Ed is updated in NixPkgs for quite some time already. So, what version
of NixPkgs do you have? Did you try SVN head?

What OS and CPU architecture do you use? I use i686-linux (NixOS), I
have TeXLive installed and xdvi working, but I have no dependencies from
TeXLive on Xm/Xm.h. Xm/Xm.h is present in lesstif. Try adding it as a
dependency for TeXLive (and, correspondingly, as a buildInput inside the
expression). It should fix your immediate compilation problem.
