Thank you @Anton-Latukha, it seems to work in NixOS now, and still fails in Nix on Debian.

Mysteriously, it is broken again with nixos-18.03 reaching 68e02f8. It was ok at 14c248a. And it was broken before, as stated in the issue description, at 06c576b

Bisecting shows, it was at first broken at 9f30660, which was a rather big hackage update.

I found further that it appeared to be fixed around 30ff9ca and ab6d081, which are python and python-cffi upgrades, and the new breakage was introduced by 47c09df, which is a sqlite update, but I have repeated this bisect and removed the impurity of using build result from a non-NixOS builder and now all those recent builds fail. But I had a working build with 18.03 at Jun 06, so there must be a hidden impurity when cross-compiling from 64bit to 32bit or when compiling on a non-NixOS host.

It's a very strange and spurious error. I managed to build successfully and am closing this again for now.
