Describe the bug
qtwebkit has been marked as broken for serveral weeks/months now.

To Reproduce
Steps to reproduce the behavior:

  1. Try to build qtwebkit on nixos-unstable
error: Package ‘qtwebkit-5.212.0-alpha4’ in /nix/store/dkknbjkiilpxbqysnnf8pyvdrcjb7hhm-nixos-21.03pre255513.8ee7c2505f9/nixos/pkgs/development/libraries/qt-5/qtModule.nix:54 is marked as broken, refusing to evaluate.

a) To temporarily allow broken packages, you can use an environment variable
   for a single invocation of the nix tools.

     $ export NIXPKGS_ALLOW_BROKEN=1

b) For `nixos-rebuild` you can set
  { nixpkgs.config.allowBroken = true; }
in configuration.nix to override this.

c) For `nix-env`, `nix-build`, `nix-shell` or any other Nix command you can add
  { allowBroken = true; }
to ~/.config/nixpkgs/config.nix.

(use '--show-trace' to show detailed location information)

Expected behavior
qtwebkit should build.
