Fails to bootstrap on nixpkgs master because of missing `ghc884`

Describe the bug

ghc884 has been removed from nixpkgs on master. The bootstrap compiler will have to be bumped:

buildBootstrapper =
if final.stdenv.buildPlatform.isAarch64 && final.stdenv.buildPlatform.isDarwin
then {
compilerNixName = "ghc8107";
}
else {
compilerNixName = "ghc884";
};

AFAICT the bootstrap compiler version is used as a minimum bound when checking the compiler version. Is bumping this going to be a breaking change?
