 Ok, here's a short module:

 {{{#!hs
 import qualified Control.Exception as Exception

 main :: IO ()
 main = do
     unserialize
     putStrLn "all is well"

 unserialize :: IO Char
 unserialize =
     if definitelyTrue
         then do
             return 'a'
         else do
             Exception.evaluate (error "wrong place")

 {-# NOINLINE definitelyTrue #-}
 definitelyTrue :: Bool
 definitelyTrue = True
 }}}

 When compiled with -O on 8.4.1, this should print "wrong place".
 Without -O, or with 8.4.2, or if True can be inlined, or without
 evaluate, all is well.  I can reproduce this on OS X 10.13.4.

 This could be related to a known bug with Exception.evaluate in 8.4.1:
 #3930
