These are some small improvements gathered while working on Nixpkgs packaging, NixOS/nixpkgs#383508. They're low hanging fruit, while the Nixpkgs packaging is still in flux (e.g. filesets aren't appreciated, nor is the everything.nix multi-derivation package) This makes the files more readily transferable.

There was a problem hiding this comment.
This worked in Nixpkgs, but not here. Might need a more explicit conditional, since we don't have the "source layer" to do the work for us in this case.

Or expose the "source layer" logic (or similar) as an independent function.
