In the Auctex package, latex.el adds '("\.drv\'" . latex-mode) to auto-mode-alist, so we
prefer to use some other regexp to avoid opening Nix derivations in the wrong mode.
I made the following patch to Auctex upstream just now:
This way, the Nix-derivation regexp always gets checked first. I'm not aware of a quick way of mimicking a lookahead assertion in the Auctex regexp, but that would probably be preferable to what I did.
