Comment(by rl):
I doubt it's the fusion framework (which does work, just not as well as it
used to before the typechecker patch). If the ghc package is getting
linked in then that is probably the reason for the binary size. The
package is only used for one thing by vector: annotations to drive
!SpecConstr. That is, I only use a single data type and no functions from
package ghc. Why would GHC link in the entire package in that case?
