[Nix-dev] Please test NixOS/nixpkgs.git on darwin

[Wout Mertens]

Ouch. So users on 10.10 should use Zalora and disable hydra binaries?

Perhaps we should fast-track the pure-darwin builds. It works swimmingly on
my system, and looks like the current Darwin situation is not tenable. So
anything in pure-darwin that breaks Linux would be good to find early.
