Comment (by rwbarton):

 (For anyone who is paying careful attention to #9400 and is wondering why
 we have ~4000 identical inlinings here while in that ticket we have only
 ~2000 copies of `unstream`, the reason is that here we are building with
 `-O0`, so we do not process the rule which rewrites `Data.Text.pack .
 unpackCString#` to `Data.Text.unpackCString#`! The text library does not
 expect its users to follow its INLINE directives without also following
 its RULES.)
