Comment (by mpickering):

 I also confirmed that b61562feb87689a202118ca08ef270422c69dcc2 causes
 SpecConstr to fire on this example when it didn't before.

 Here is the snippet of the core which was produced *before* this patch.

 {{{
 T13016.exampleMODULE2 :: Arr (Int, Int)
 [GblId,
  Caf=NoCafRefs,
  Str=DmdType,
  Unf=Unf{Src=<vanilla>, TopLvl=True, Value=True, ConLike=True,
          WorkFree=True, Expandable=True, Guidance=IF_ARGS [] 10 30}]
 T13016.exampleMODULE2 =
   T13016.ArrPair
     @ (Int, Int)
     @ Int
     @ Int
     @~ <(Int, Int)>_N
     T13016.exampleMODULE4
     T13016.exampleMODULE3

 T13016.exampleMODULE1 :: Int
 [GblId,
  Caf=NoCafRefs,
  Str=DmdType,
  Unf=Unf{Src=<vanilla>, TopLvl=True, Value=True, ConLike=True,
          WorkFree=True, Expandable=True, Guidance=IF_ARGS [] 10 20}]
 T13016.exampleMODULE1 = I# 5#

 exampleMODULE :: (Int, Int)

 exampleMODULE =
   case T13016.$w$s!:
          @ Int @ Int T13016.exampleMODULE2 T13016.exampleMODULE1
   of _ [Occ=Dead] { (# ww1_sAJ, ww2_sAK #) ->
