I forgot that when built with `quickest` setting, GHC compiles code without any optimizations at all, which means that the generated Core is necessarily going to be quite different on most test cases (not to mention the performance implications). Besides, there's a disclaimer on the `quickest` setting in `mk/build.mk` anyway, so if you try running the testsuite after knowingly choosing `quickest`, you get what you deserve :) -- Ticket URL: http://ghc.haskell.org/trac/ghc/ticket/12141#comment:1 GHC http://www.haskell.org/ghc/ The Glasgow Haskell Compiler
