That was a new expression, of course based on cabal2nix's output.

But with both these expressions, enabling these flags leads to
additional dependencies (possibly on non-haskell packages).
It seems xmobar already contains with_xft, which depends on X11Xft.
How will cabal2nix (regeneration) figure those out?
