Trying to reproduce an issue around special characters in filenames on darwin

Overview

Trying to reproduce the issue NixOS/nix#847

To reproduce the following approach is chosen:

• Define the source as a fixed output derivation
• Build on NixOS
• Build on Darwin

Assumption: This will fail on one system since the hashes don't match due to incompatibilities in the unicode handling.

Result on darwin

$ nix-build -A tarball --check
