Similarly, please see https://ghc.haskell.org/trac/ghc/ticket/12032
for a regression when using many top-level cases in equational style.
I haven't looked at core, it's possible this issue is the same as
ticket 12028.

Also please note I am _not_ on the -dev list at present so that list
is not getting my responses to this thread.
