Comment:

 I claim this bug is fixed in the HEAD.  At least, compiling Ian's example
 produces every reasonable code.

 Ian: could you add a test using the two-module example you so helpfully
 put togehter (`AST` and `ParserUtils`), that checks that the
 `ParserUtils.o` file is of reasonable size?  Or that `-dshow-passes`
 produces intermediates of reasonable size.

 And `bjpop`: could you try compiling your python package again?  Thanks.

 Simon
