Comment (by bgamari):

 Hmm, I think the expected test output might just be wrong: the stderr
 output is empty in the `normal` way because GHC is invoked without
 optimisation enabled in that way. I believe the test was supposed to
 expect non-empty output.

 I suspect we should only be running this test in the `optasm` way (since
 the other ways will inevitably differ in their strictness signatures) and
 update the output accordingly. We should ask Simon to look over the new
 output before committing.
