This patch configures all Cabal builds with '--enable-split-objs' unless the Nix expression explicitly sets "enableSplitObjs = false". The Cabal manual [1] describes this option as follows: | The GHC -split-objs reduces the final size of the executables that use the | library by allowing them to link with only the bits that they use rather | than the entire library. The downside is that building the library takes | longer and uses considerably more memory. One immediate benefit of this change is that the 'darcs' closure defined in the top-level no longer refers to GHC. The same is probably true with other executable packages.
