Comment (by simonpj):

 But in GHCi, which does not optimise, UNPACK pragmas do nothing, so it
 seems sensible to ignore them. Are you saying that you want GHC to do all
 the checks that it would have done if it had been optimising, even though
 it will then ignore the results?

 I'm sure that would be do-able if that's what everyone wants, and someone
 was willing to do it.

 Simon
