@phil-opp Fair enough, I was wondering since they've *both* evolved a bit since the fork, there might be some incidental converge.

Does ```bash nix-build '' --arg crossSystem '{ config = "x86_64-unknown-linux-musl"; useLLVM = true; }' -A hello ``` work? I don't remember any Haskell-specific issues, but could easily be forgetting things....

Yeah I don't think they should be registered in the same package db, especially if package DBs are to be per machine for cross. When you need a library, you...

https://github.com/docopt/docopt.rs/blob/master/src/parse.rs#L617-L623 that is a good model :). Maybe an enum can be generated for every alternative with disjoint variants? edit: thinking a bit morel, seeing that a pattern is an...
