[ANN] - Hugs for MacOS (x86) - via Nix Flakes

I spent some time with the last public release of the Hugs sources,
making them compile on a modern Mac (x86 chipset). I used Nix's flakes
feature to manage the build and install.
If you'd like to run the hugs interpreter directly using the flake, just type:
`nix run github:m4dc4p/hugs#hugs`
If you'd like to execute a Haskell file, try:
`nix run github:m4dc4p/hugs

wonderful! This a fantastic piece of computational archaeology!

If you'd like to execute a Haskell file, try:
`nix run github:m4dc4p/hugs
` Or alternately:
`nix run github:m4dc4p/hugs#runhugs
` (That is, `runhugs` is the default app provided by the flake.)
See the README at https://github.com/m4dc4p/hugs for more details (including other binaries available).
I don't have much of a use case for Hugs, so I got the flake to the point where I could start the interpreter and run simple programs. I'm glad to accept pull requests or bug reports. You can find the source and submit any issues at https://github.com/m4dc4p/hugs.
Note: I don't have access to Apple silicon, so this build has only been tested under x86. If it works for M1 please let me know, or if you are able to submit a PR I'd welcome it!
Enjoy!
