Comment (by simonpj):

 Good point. Works fine in HEAD, as a result of this (post-8.2) patch

     Kill off complications in CoreFVs

 ...

     * The code around floating case-expressions turned out to be
       very delicate, because can_fail primops (which we want to
       float inwards) can't be floated outwards; so we have to be
       careful never to float them too far. Note [Floating primops]
       has the details
 }}}
 I'll augment the Note to add your use-case.

 I'm not sure we can do much for 8.2; how important is it for you?
