In the following example, with either -O or -O2

In the derived Eq instance for A, in '==' nothing ever gets re-packed into a B constructor.

However in the derived Ord instance, in the 'compile' function the code from -ddump-simpl shows that the RHS of 'compare' is unpacked from the 'A' constructor only to be repacked in 'B' constructor and then passed on to a different function.

Is there any way we can do for 'compare' what was done for '==' ?

Thanks

module Bug where

data A = A {-# UNPACK #-} !B
 deriving (Eq, Ord)

data B = B {-# UNPACK #-} !Int
           {-# UNPACK #-} !Int
           {-# UNPACK #-} !Int
           {-# UNPACK #-} !Int
           {-# UNPACK #-} !Int
           {-# UNPACK #-} !Int
           {-# UNPACK #-} !Int
 deriving (Eq, Ord)
