In this commit: 871cf9f#diff-ff2a2145cf58008275b3e5299c8bdcd31a88541c74f23127aa4f5468de69b80eR25, the code IS_DIRECTORY ${ENV(NIX_CC} checks the env var without quotes, which means an unset or empty variables can cause build errors, eg this one for the boring-sys Rust crate in a nix shell:
"IS_DIRECTORY" "AND" "EXISTS" "/nix-support/orig-libc" "AND" "EXISTS" "/nix-support/orig-libc-dev"
^
Nothing here, should have at least an empty string
I'm not sure it's missing quotes though, I don't know how CMake works in this situation, but since that looks like a bash-inspired syntax, I suppose it has bash-inspired bugs too
Full error:
