I'm used to have
nixpkgs.config = import /home/urkud/.nixpkgs/config.nix;
in my configuration.nix. This simplifies maintaining nixpkgs options a lot.

BTW, why do you think that packageOverrides is the only useful nixpkgs 
option? I use config.gems as well. Of couse, I can rewrite rubygems-nix 
magic to use packageOverrides but I'd prefer to have some time for this...

So, _please_, notify about such incompatible changes in advance.
