Hi,

I recently started seeing deprecation warnings about how serializers
in a "define-configuration" stanza were positioned relative to a
docstring. Unfortunately, the warnings disappeared from view (during
both "pull" and "deploy") when I moved the cachefilesd service to a
custom channel. [1]

The warnings were then in a derivation log, but I would not have seen
them without an unrelated error. The full log is below.

I believe warnings in such a derivation should be brought to a user's
attention with the same prominence as when they arise as part of a
system configuration. Thanks!

Kind regards
Felix
