That workaround is fragile for me:
When I put everything into one file, the "fromList/toList" rule fires.
However, when I put the test1 and main definitions into a separate file,
the "fromList/toList" rule no longer fires.
The reason for that seems to be that " fromList' = fromList " is rewritten
to " fromList' = fromList' ", and then the strictness/demand analysis flags
it up as always bottoming.
Then in the file where we write `test1 x = fromList (toList x)`, it gets
rewritten to `test1 x = fromList' (toList x)`, after which (because of the
always bottoming) it gets rewritten to `test1 _ = case fromList' of {}`
