 Not clear why the warning from `OccurAnal` about rediscovering join points
 is ever firing. There's one circumstance I can think of, namely the
 special typing rule allowing jumps from β-redexes, but the warning fires
 repeatedly and β-redexes don't survive the simplifier.

 This isn't hard evidence of something wrong, but it indicates the
 occurrence analyzer may be missing something.
