Ben,
Note that removing the flag isn't a "solution" to the underlying problem of the intermediate code being awful. Switching to the linear allocator just permits compilation of core code that was worse than before. Now it needs to spill more registers when compiling the same source code.
So, would you reopen #5361 by yourself? https://ghc.haskell.org/trac/ghc/ticket/5361 --Kazu
