It seems to work now. And...

$ ll .nix-profile
lrwxrwxrwx 1 mirpa users 44 Jul 18 17:36 .nix-profile -> 
/nix/var/nix/profiles/per-user/mirpa/profile

$ mousepad

$ nix-env -i mousepad

`/nix/store/9jx3xf0mvhd5sx6zxqas8fcdqnid7lj8-user-environment'

$ mousepad

$ # no segfault?

What I don't understand is, how ~/gtksourceview* came to existence in 
the first place, because I never made those symlinks (directly). I 
removed them couple of times, then I realized that it might be 
responsible for repeated disappearance of wine.
