Comment(by simonpj):
Can you give a small program that doesn't optimise as well as you'd like,
and a hand-optimised version that does better?
Concerning #2289, unboxing a pure enumeration (as you propose here) is
much easier than unboing a general sum type such as lists (which is what
Don's comment in #2289 asked for). In any case, #2289 is largly about
another issue (nested CPR).
