No. I should have mentioned earlier. With this patch, the install
phase will fail.
#+begin_example
MKDIR /etc/profile.d/
install: cannot change permissions of ‘/etc/profile.d/’: No such file or directory
make: *** [scripts/local.mk:10: /etc/profile.d/] Error 1
command "make" "install" failed with status 2

There is no obvious way to fix the error, so setting NIX_CONF_DIR is
easier. Perhaps someone can fix the nix package with a clean patch.
That would be better.
