Same issue in master: https://github.com/status-im/nim-stew/runs/7371971140?check_suite_focus=true

All other Nim branches/versions and platforms pass CI. No test suite regressions and fixes most of the issues.

[narimiran]

This is causing problems (in Nim CIs, when testing other packages which use stew) with Nim 1.2: macros.nim(415, 20) Error: 'nnkArgList' should be: 'nnkArglist'

[arnetheduck]

we've come to the conclusion those packages should use stylecheck:hint for 1.2 and error for 1.6

[tersec]

Yes, even if this could be worked around, there's also localPassc (1.2) vs localPassC (1.4, I believe, and definitely 1.6). --styleCheck:error can't work across 1.2 and later versions simultaneously.
