I have the same problem:

soyuz:~ maggesi$ nix-store --optimise
4776 bytes (0.00 MiB, 2808 blocks) freed by hard-linking 351 files;  
there are 352 files with equal contents out of 740 files in total
error: cannot link `/nix/store/1hwk374d308viiry7sd6fy1346ib8ldy- 
openssl-1.0.0a/ssl/man/man3/HMAC_Final.3.tmp-38095-1420250114' to `/ 
nix/store/1hwk374d308viiry7sd6fy1346ib8ldy-openssl-1.0.0a/ssl/man/man3/ 
HMAC.3': No such file or directory
