Comment (by monoidal):

 Replying to [comment:7 osa1]:
 > Looking at this again; I realized that we don't need any flags to
 trigger some lint warnings in the original program (the `Async` module):

 This is a different issue; GHC won't inline a self-recursive definition
 (e.g. `x :: a; x = x`) even if it's marked as INLINE. We could have better
 messaging about this, I believe this is ticket #9418.
