Building xmonad worked fine with it, let's see what CI thinks about it.

Looks like at least cabal is unhappy with it:

I should give another shot at removing zlib once I've merged 4f57531#diff-5a873d92c00133aa8d3f0a425a93aac2R453, which (by not splitting the .a file into its own output zlib.static, NixOS/nixpkgs#66490) should make the zlib.pc pkg-config file work as expected.

This might help in the task of not having to give -lz manually.

I found that I can't remove ncurses because ghc depends on it, but -lz in #44, see f9bdfa0.
