Comment(by simonmar):
We do alpha-normalise the whole code of the module before we hash it -
that's why you're seeing `a60` rater than the internal names that look
like `a_s3fj`. It's a mystery to me why there are differences here, so we
ought to look into it. Ian has agreed to fix the differences due to
`ghc_wrapper` Ids that were mentioned above, and to look into the
differences in "SC:..." rule names, which should fix two of the known
issues here.
Fixing the CSE ordering issue is a tricky one, because it means keeping
the bindings in a deterministic order throughout the compiler.
