Comment (by bgamari):

 If it possible that the fix in comment:13 has broken? I am seeing no
 evidence of unpacking in this example with `master`,
 {{{#!hs
 {-# LANGUAGE TypeFamilies #-}
 module Hi where

 data family Complex a
 data instance Complex Double = CD {-# UNPACK #-} !Double
                                   {-# UNPACK #-} !Double

 data T = T {-# UNPACK #-} !(Complex Double)

 hi :: T
 hi = T (CD 1 1)
 }}}
