 This seems so shallow that I feel like I must be missing something, but if
 I implement a function like

 {{{#!hs
 eq :: Bool -> Bool -> Bool
 eq x y = x == y
 {-# NOINLINE eq #-}
 }}}

 the boolean equality operator is not inlined in eq, even at -O2. The
 generated core is instead

 {{{#!hs
 eq = $fEqBool_$c==
 }}}
