Nope, there's a lot of optimisations taking place on the core-to-core phase, to ensure the core that gets unfolded into your .hi files is as nice as possible. And then still there's things that actually stay as calls into your compiled library -- for those, you'll want direct jumps and so forth, which you get with -fvia-C -optc-O2 and above.
See my recent post on micro optimisations.

Fair enough, but I don't think that's whats going on here specifically. I can't get ghc-options to effect any change, one way or the other. I guess its a mystery for now. Thanks for the replies. Scott
