Comment (by elaforge):

 I just ran into this issue myself.  The main thing I have to add is to
 note that this issue also affects -fhpc, so whatever solution should take
 that into account too.  I took a look through FlagChecker.hs for other
 candidates, but didn't see anything else.

 A simple fix would be for ghci to note that -fhpc or -O are being ignored,
 but still include them in its flag hash when it does the recompilation
 check.  I didn't notice that suggestion in the discussion above.
