Bug 19136 – is expressions don't work as documented

The docs say: is ( Type Identifier : TypeSpecialization ) The condition is satisfied if Type is the same as TypeSpecialization, or if Type is a class and TypeSpecialization is a base class or base interface of it. The Identifier is declared to be either an alias of the TypeSpecialization or, if TypeSpecialization is dependent on Identifier, the deduced type. So, if we have Type = int and TypeSpecialization = long, we would expect the result to be false, because int != long and neither are classes or interfaces. But the result is actually true. Furthermore, Indentifier is set to int, whereas the docs say that Identifier should be an alias of TypeSpecialization, long in this case.
