+Note [Rule dependency info]
+~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
+THe VarSet in a SpecInfo is used for dependency analysis in the 
+occurrence analyser.  We must track free vars in *both* lhs and rhs.  Why both?  
+Consider
+       x = y
+       RULE f x = 4
+Then if we substitute y for x, we'd better do so in the
+ rule's LHS too, so we'd better ensure the dependency is respsected
