Comment (by akio):

 I think I know what is happening. The {{{wrapper}}} and {{{f}}} cost
 centres are actually placed under {{{SYSTEM}}}. I can see it by using
 {{{+RTS -pa}}} instead of {{{+RTS -p}}}. However {{{SYSTEM}}} is a hidden
 cost centre, so by default it's not included in the report, resulting in a
 confusing call tree.
