The testType Any is erased to Object, but the expr type Int isn't erased to Integer, so then it fails as Int !<: Object. We avoid the problem by feeding in AnyVal, leading to a (possibly elided) non-null test only.

There was a problem hiding this comment.
Isn't that going to trigger with the same issue with any other type that erases to Object? Like ... AnyVal itself?
There's supposed to already be logic in transformIsInstanceOf to avoid a type test when expr.tpe <:< testType:

The problem is that it tests on erased types, instead of the original types. Addressing that at the root should be more robust, shouldn't it?
