Exactly. If nix-env would by default prefer expressions that match its own 'system', then this kind of surprise wouldn't happen, but it would still be possible to install 'wine' on x86_64-linux even though it has only a i686-linux version. It never occurred to me that I might have to specify a --system-filter, because the Nixpkgs channel doesn't require anything that either. Now I realize that the Nixpkgs channel ships a real Nix expression set, whereas the hydra channel ships just a bunch of store paths with no additional logic.
