The result is Phab:D5226. However, the approach presented does seem a bit odd since the demand resulting from demand analysis is still conservative; we merely make up for this conservatism in worker-wrapper. However, this doesn't help other (hypothetical) consumers of demand analysis. Perhaps it would be good to open a ticket to ensure we don't forget about this limitation. -- Ticket URL: http://ghc.haskell.org/trac/ghc/ticket/15696#comment:80 GHC http://www.haskell.org/ghc/ The Glasgow Haskell Compiler
