Huge executables with GHC 7

The HEAD produces enormous executables sometimes, compiling the same source with 6.12.3 produces a 2.2MB executable while HEAD produces a 29.3MB executable. Stripping reduces that to 18.6MB.

The examples I have so far involve a number of files and a few cabal packages, I'll try to get a smaller self-contained example, but I'm not too optimistic, it seems well-behaved if I use only core libs.
