The src points to the obsidiansystems repo as it has the ghcjs ported from
8.10.5 to 8.10.7, and a bunch of other fixes (#812, #811, #809)
(cherry picked from commit ba25b274f4bb0240a8ffa71e41b55712930af3d8)
Modified the stm_2_5_0_1 -> stm_2_5_0_0
Backport which adds, rather than updates, the GHC release.
----
The only big change is required for darwin since GHC 8.10.5 now
runs xattr in the install phase on darwin:
* 11e1dcde0d
* ec451cac39
Unfortunately, it uses the host /usr/bin/xattr by default which is
present in the build due to a lack of sandboxing on darwin. That xattr
version however still requires Python 2.7 whereas Python 3.8 is in PATH
in our build. We solve this by setting the XATTR environment variable.
We can't use python3Packages.xattr since GHC expects Apple's fork of
xattr which provides some extra flags to utilize.

ghc8102Binary doesn't build on hydra on arm since it exceeds the maximum
output size. This change works around this issue by using the minimal
version of that compiler instead.
* ghcHEAD: bump to 8.11.20200403
* ghcHead: reduce diff vs. 8.10.1
dontAddExtraLibs was removed by accident (IMO) in ea19a8ed1e
* ghcHEAD: add ability to use system libffi
- enable nixpkgs' libffi
- minimise diffs against 8.10.1
- remove patching
* remove configure warning about --with-curses-includes
configure: WARNING: unrecognized options: --with-curses-includes
The 8.4.x version of ghcjs hasn't compiled successfully
in ages, so I reckon it's unused. The even older code
in pkgs/development/compilers/ghcjs is unused entirely;
it's not even referenced in Nixpkgs.
ghc-8.4.4 requires sphinx < 1.8, otherwise build fails on haddock with:
Extension error: The 'ghc-flag' directive is already registered to domain std
Also fixed evaluation errors in configurations of ghc-8.2.x and ghc-8.4.x.
Closes https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/pull/55703.
