In order to upgrade Haskell stack tool on NixOS without enabling nixos-unstable for all packages it is possible to install just one single package from unstable channel like following:

nix-env -f https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs-channels/archive/nixos-unstable.tar.gz -iA stack

If it happens that it is still older version, try unstable-small channel instead which gets updated more often:

nix-env -f https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs-channels/archive/nixos-unstable-small.tar.gz -iA stack
