Nix GLFW Haskell bindings missing library? - haskell

Question

I'm trying to compile a Haskell program (https://hackage.haskell.org/package/gloss-export)
However I'm running into the following error:
<command line>: can't load .so/.DLL for: /nix/store/f2730k4icw6biaaw3k81x853sch2ig8k-bindings-GLFW-3.2.1.1/lib/ghc-8.6.5/x86_64-linux-ghc-8.6.5/libHSbindings-GLFW-3.2.1.1-HsSdzRmGNYCJBRDKgdT43y-ghc8.6.5.so (/nix/store/wx1vk75bpdr65g6xwxbj4rw0pk04v5j3-glibc-2.27/lib/libm.so.6: version `GLIBC_2.29' not found (required by /nix/store/f2730k4icw6biaaw3k81x853sch2ig8k-bindings-GLFW-3.2.1.1/lib/ghc-8.6.5/x86_64-linux-ghc-8.6.5/libHSbindings-GLFW-3.2.1.1-HsSdzRmGNYCJBRDKgdT43y-ghc8.6.5.so))
cabal: repl failed for exe:xmonad from my-xmonad-0.2.0.0.
How could I resolve this dependency?
What I've tried:
Adding the bindings-GLFW haskell package but this did not make any
difference.
Adding the glibc package via the following:
#(myHaskellPackages.callCabal2nix "HaskellNixCabalStarter" (./.) {}).overrideAttrs (oldAttrs: {
#buildInputs = (oldAttrs.buildInputs or []) ++ [ pkgs.glibc ];
#})
This seems to give me another error of:
