Note that the sandbox profile allows file-write* even though it isn't seemingly necessary. First of all, nix's standard user permissioning sandboxProfile += "(allow file-read* process-exec\n";
mechanism still prevents builders from writing to input directories, so no security/purity is lost. The reason we allow file-write* is that
denying it means the `access` syscall will return EPERM instead of EACCESS, which confuses a few programs that assume (understandably, since
it appears to be a violation of the POSIX spec) that `access` won't do that, and don't deal with it nicely if it does. The most notable of
these is the entire GHC Haskell ecosystem. */
