Comment (by isaacdupree):

 this idea is possibly even worse than Duncan's, but:

 In simonpj's example, do inline 'f' because it's only used once -- but
 ALSO keep a copy of it, so that ghci people can at least call it.

 If that leads to bloat in even the compiled code, here is an even-weirder
 idea: keep a separate .hi and .o file for the stuff that's accessible from
 within the module (perhaps excluding the stuff that's exported, since it's
 in the other hi/o files that we already make)
