LGTM, but what was the build failure for glasgow about?

[booxter]

The glasgow failure is because sdcc which is its dependency is broken for Darwin since the bump to 4.5.0. (Apparently it doesn't install man pages, which breaks the man output for the derivation.) So not related.

I will hold this PR as draft until I run nixpkgs-review for linux.

Confirmed all green for Linux and the same issue with sdcc on Darwin that is not related to this patch.
