+GHC is very cautious about duplicating work. For example, consider
+<programlisting>
+f k z xs = let xs = build g
+ in ...(foldr k z xs)...sum xs...
+{-# RULES "foldr/build" forall k z g. foldr k z (build g) = g k z #-}
+</programlisting>
+Since <literal>xs</literal> is used twice, GHC does not fire the foldr/build rule. Rightly
+so, because it might take a lot of work to compute <literal>xs</literal>, which would be
+duplicated if the rule fired.
+</para>
+<para>
+Sometimes, however, this approach is over-cautious, and we <emphasis>do</emphasis> want the
+rule to fire, even though doing so would duplicate redex. There is no way that GHC can work out
+when this is a good idea, so we provide the CONLIKE pragma to declare it, thus:
+<programlisting>
+{-# INLINE[1] CONLIKE f #-}
+f x = <replaceable>blah</replaceable>
+</programlisting>
+CONLIKE is a modifier to an INLINE or NOINLINE pragam. It specifies that an application
+of f to one argument (in general, the number of arguments to the left of the '=' sign)
+should be considered cheap enough to duplicate, if such a duplication would make rule
+fire. (The name "CONLIKE" is short for "constructor-like", because constructors certainly
+have such a property.)
+The CONLIKE pragam is a modifier to INLINE/NOINLINE because it really only makes sense to match
+<literal>f</literal> on the LHS of a rule if you are sure that <literal>f</literal> is
+not going to be inlined before the rule has a chance to fire.
