-split-sections replaced -split-objs with following upsides:
1) -split-objs adds considerable overhead to compile time
2) combined with stripping, it causes issues when cross-compiling
For upstream see https://ghc.haskell.org/trac/ghc/ticket/8405
This is supported only for Linux/Windows using ld linker.
GHC master also turns on -split-sections by default.
Example using stack:
Without splitting
$ du /nix/store/5paayhibayr73zqfaj458g4k4mv108jn-stack-1.3.2

23420 /nix/store/5paayhibayr73zqfaj458g4k4mv108jn-stack-1.3.2
With -split-objs
$ du /nix/store/fypymm529adpx71gdzm0851xz42wdbz0-stack-1.3.2

Note: you currently need following overrides to build stack on 802:
vector-algorithms = dontCheck super.vector-algorithms;
path-io = doJailbreak super.path-io;
stack = doJailbreak super.stack;
Note: Should also work on GHC 8.0.1, but I'm being careful here.
We could backport later on.
This fixes an issue where `nixops deploy` wouldn't restart the chrony
service when the chrony configuration changed, because it wouldn't
detect that `/etc/chrony.conf` was a dependency of the chrony service.
Since the update of imagemagick in
5e753c1a65 there are certain test cases
which now unexpectly succeed and in turn cause the whole build to fail.
So in order to prevent this from happening let's skip those tests
properly instead of running them and expect them to fail.
Tested by building pythonPackages.pyocr on x86_64-linux.

The tests have failed because Chromium has started up displaying the
following error message in a dialog window:
Chromium can not be run as root.
Please start Chromium as a normal user. If you need to run as root for
development, rerun with the --no-sandbox flag.
So let's run as user "alice" and pass all commands using the small
helper function "ru" (to keep it short, it's for "Run as User").
Tested it by running the "stable" test on x86_64-linux.

Regression introduced by 0cb487ee04.
This changed the result for defaultGateway to be a submodule instead of
just a plain string, so instead of using just cfg.defaultGateway we need
to pass cfg.defaultGateway.address now.

Upstream bug: https://bugs.ghostscript.com/show_bug.cgi?id=697457
A new release containing this fix is expected in march; until then,
apply patch from upstream. Note that there have been essentially no
changes between 0.13 and this patch.
The most recent version on the sourceforge page is 0.11 which is quite
old; the official upstream site has 0.13; judging by the commit delta,
there've been quite a few bug fixes etc since 0.11.
