the GHC provided by Nixpkgs has both static and dynamic libraries enabled,
so you *do* have "non-dynamic-only GHC".

Are you really sure that the error you've encountered is actually related to
https://ghc.haskell.org/trac/ghc/ticket/10374? I'm asking because I have
compiled GHC numerous times using an ordinary ghcWithPackages environment
from Nix, and I've never had any such problems.

Best regards,
Peter
