Yes, booting with -O on didn't work. I'm beating on that right now.
Getting mutual recursion among modules to work with the terrific level of
cross-module inlining we have is quite tricky.

| Trying to boot ghc-2.04 with itself fails on HPs (but I don't think the

| an interface-file (for IOBase, I think).

| Looking a bit closer into the compile-log revealed some strange (well,
| at least strange for *me* ;-] warnings like:
|
| utils/FastString.lhs:12:warning:
| Warning: failed to find (optional) interface decl for
| `UniqFM.$muniqueOf'
