 The new SAT transformation is causing this failure in the nightly builds
 when compiling the `ghc-prim` package with `-O2 -dcore-lint`:

 I will disable SAT for now until this is fixed.

 Also, SAT appears to be run directly after the desugarer and before any
 simplification at all, which is probably suboptimal (e.g. lots of non-
 recursive functions will be marked as recursive).
