if it's just for nvcc to be on the path, this makes sense. Is there more that cudatoolkit provides?
My main concern is for cross compilation, in which it will get a binary of the wrong architecture.
However, seeing as linuxPackages.nvidia_x11 gets propagated as well, this expression probably isn't very cross compilation friendly

cudatoolkit has both nvcc used at build time and libraries linked at runtime. I have no idea whether it might support cross compilation. But the question is entirely moot at this time, as we only package it for Linux x86-64.

If cudatoolkit doesn't contain any python libraries then it should not be in propagated. Now for libraries to link it should be in buildInputs. I believe, there is some strange thing that may be specific to python derivations, where binaries may not be visible unless they are also in nativeBuildInputs [1]. I never dug into this, but it seems like a bug in nixpkgs, so you might need to also have it in nativeBuildInputs as a workaround.
