@compile_workload fails to compile some explicit toplevel calls

[LilithHafner]

When I put setup in @compile_workload, it fails to compile later steps. I suspect this is due to inlining or otherwise treating multiple lines in the compile workflow step as a single operation.

Does not compile rand(::AliasTable)

PrecompileTools.@compile_workload begin
    at = AliasTable([1.0, 2.0])
    rand(at)
end

Does compile rand(::AliasTable)

at = AliasTable([1.0, 2.0])
PrecompileTools.@compile_workload begin
    rand(at)
end

Full example

x@fedora:~/.julia/dev/AliasTables$ cat src/AliasTables.jl 
module AliasTables

using Random
using PrecompileTools

export AliasTable

struct AliasTable{T}
    x::T
end
Base.rand(x::AliasTable) = rand(x.x)

at = AliasTable([1.0, 2.0])
PrecompileTools.@compile_workload begin
    rand(at)
end

end
x@fedora:~/.julia/dev/AliasTables$ julia --project -e '@time using AliasTables; @time at = AliasTable([1.0, 2.0]); @time rand(at)'

I ran into this example when attempting to use this package to set up precompilation for AliasTables.jl (LilithHafner/AliasTables.jl#33)
