Not sure if this is the right place for this but:
I was testing github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/pull/463361 with a nixos config flake using

  nixpkgs.localSystem = {
    system = "x86_64-linux";
    useLLVM = true;
    linker = "lld";
  };

And I ran into the following error:

       … while evaluating the option `home-manager.users.theo.i18n.glibcLocales':

       … while evaluating the option `i18n.glibcLocales':

       (stack trace truncated; use '--show-trace' to show the full, detailed trace)

That's a common symptom of bootstrap issues
The bootstrap fetchurl is used in a place where the full fetchurl should be used.
It's not an issue in fetchurl itself

how?
for me it worked previously with:

          TARGET_CC = "${pkgs.pkgsCross.mingwW64.stdenv.cc}/bin/${pkgs.pkgsCross.mingwW64.stdenv.cc.targetPrefix}cc";

          depsBuildBuild = with pkgs; [
            pkgsCross.mingwW64.stdenv.cc
            pkgsCross.mingwW64.windows.pthreads
            perl
          ];
