After a successful bootstrap, I tried something even braver:
Compiling GHC 4.00 again with the bootstrapped version, but this
time with  SRC_HC_OPTS += -O  added to mk/build.mk. This failed
rather quickly:

   /home/inst/glasgow/linux/bin/ghc -O -cpp -fglasgow-exts -Rghc-timing -I. -IcodeGen 
-InativeGen -Iparser 
-iutils:basicTypes:types:hsSyn:prelude:rename:typecheck:deSugar:coreSyn:specialise:simplCore:stranal:stgSyn:simplStg:codeGen:absCSyn:main:reader:profiling:parser:nativeGen
 -recomp   -fvia-C  -c utils/SST.lhs -o utils/SST.o -osuf o


   SST.lhs:5: Warning:
       Failed to find (optional) interface decl for
       `PrelException!catchIO'
       desired at
       PrelIOBase.hi:99

   SST.lhs:5: Could not find valid interface file `PrelException'

   Compilation had errors

There seems to be some interface syntax confusion ('!' vs. '.')
in 4.00.

In anticipation of 4.01,
   Sven
