Is "-O currently also implies -fvia-C." still true?

[Thorkil Naur]

Hello,

The GHC User's Guide, Versio 6.6.1 
(http://www.haskell.org/ghc/docs/latest/html/users_guide/options-optimise.html) 
says:

  -O currently also implies -fvia-C.

I seem to remember some communication a while back that seemed to imply that 
this is no longer the case. So my question is: Is the quoted statement still 
true?

Thanks and best regards
Thorkil
