Is there any heuristic in GHC that discourages putting
unfoldings of functions into .hi files if the function
occurs on the right handside of a RULES rule?
I have code, where this seems to be the case. When I remove
the rewrite rule, the function is placed into the .hi file,
but with the rewrite rule, it isn't - despite an INLINE
pragma for that function! Unfortunately, the example is
rather big and I didn't manage to find a small piece of code
showing the same behaviour yet.
This currently bites me in a rule of the form
{-# "" forall ... foo .. bar .. = foobar .. #-}
{-# INLINE foobar #-}
foobar .. = ...
where I want foobar inlined.
Cheers,
Manuel
PS: I do this only because GHC crashes when I place the rhs
of the foobar definition directly into the rhs of the
rule, but again I don't have a small example producing
the bug *sigh*
