It's not that important about the nix version, but about the nixos version.

It's wrong in trunk. Maybe I commited that to modular-nixos.

I finally checked nixos trunk, and there in xserver.nix is:
    ++ (optional cfg.synaptics.enable ["${xorg.xf86inputsynaptics}"]);

This means the xorg package is taken, and not pkgs.synaptics. I don't
think you are using the nixos trunk, then. Can't you see that same
line?
