I'm not sure if this is a recent regression but I just installed the

As far as I know, earlier versions of GHC didn't check for unused INLINE

pragmas.

That was relatively easy to fix but I don't think I can submit a patch as there is no repository for the code and the email of the maintainer is no longer valid.

I am probably using the package incorrectly but worse, for some types it does not seem to generate random values - see below. I don't think there's anyway of submitting a bug report; I'm reporting it here so there is at least some awareness there might be a problem.
