I haven't thought about it much.  I needed it for the project I was
working on, but now it's not a priority for me.

FWIW, stack works okay-ish on NixOS.  You just have to switch the
compiler version to avoid running stack setup and install system libs
with nix-env whenever stack build complains.

I could probably join the effort, but I don't really know where to
start since I have no deep knowledge of either project.
