This regresses all over the place and I don't really know why. Maybe because `case f x of g -> case g y of res -> res` is operationally different than `case f x y of res -> res`? Maybe it's because one-shot information worsened? -- Ticket URL: http://ghc.haskell.org/trac/ghc/ticket/14998#comment:22 GHC http://www.haskell.org/ghc/ The Glasgow Haskell Compiler
