As a further note, I have tried to update the kernel to latest within a virtualbox guest but it fails (xorg does not boot up). So I have had a go with linuxPackages_4_6 and it did work and fix the problem.
On the other hand, I am also using `nix` without `nixos (it is RHEL)` on CI (continous integration) and these error messages have recently pop up which is quite annoying. Is there something I can do  ?

The fix would be to build GHC with --disable-large-address-space or
apply patch https://ghc.haskell.org/trac/ ghc/ticket/12495.

There's an issue mentionning this: https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/issues/18118
