Comment(by parcs):

 I suspect `Pretty.text "blah"` doesn't get rewritten because `Pretty.text`
 gets inlined before the rule has a chance to fire. `Pretty.text` is
 currently marked as `NOINLINE [1]`; if you change this to `NOINLINE [0]`,
 then the rule does fire.

 And it looks like `Outputable.text "blah"` doesn't get rewritten because
 `Pretty.text` gets inlined into the unfolding of `Outputable.text`.
