[Nix-dev] hydra admins: please take care of i686 GHC out of memory issues

Hi,

that's a bit tricky, as the .drv's of the failed builds have been
garbage collected. We need to fix that in Hydra. For now, easiest
would be to add a change somewhere that'll trigger a rebuild of the
whole i686-linux ghc packages, or to physically delete these builds
from the hydra database and re-evaluate the jobsets. Not sure what is
best yet.

Cheers,
Rob
