... so what I didn't try is unpulling Ian's recent Data.Map patch then building 
without the unneeded NCGs. I just realised that patch only arrived this 
morning. Maybe removing the NCGs will be enough if we're not also suffering 
Data.Map blowout. I can try tomorrow.

In any event, we'll have to fix this properly before 7.2.

Add binary size regression tests to my list of possible christmas presents.. if 
anyone's going shopping that is.. :)
