> In the `test1()` method of the test case:
>
> `inlined2()` calls `clone()` for an object loaded from field `field`
> that has inexact type `A` at parse time. The intrinsic for `clone()`
> inserts an `Allocate` and an `ArrayCopy` nodes. When igvn runs, the
> load of `field` is optimized out because it reads back a newly
> allocated `B` written to `field` in the same method. `ArrayCopy` can
> now be optimized because the type of its `src` input is known. The
> type of its `dest` input is the `CheckCastPP` from the allocation of
> the cloned object created at parse time. That one has type `A`. A
> series of `Load`s/`Store`s are created to copy the fields of class `B`
> from `src` (of type `B`) to `dest` of (type `A`).
>
> Writting to `dest` with offsets for fields that don't exist in `A`,
> causes this code in `Compile::flatten_alias_type()`:

> That causes an assert in `ArrayCopyNode::try_clone_instance()` to
> fire. With a release build, execution proceeds. `test1()` also has a
> non escaping allocation. That one causes EA to run and
> `ConnectionGraph::split_unique_types()` to move the store to the non
> escaping allocation to a new slice. In the process, when it iterates
> over `MergeMem` nodes, it notices the stores added by
> `ArrayCopyNode::try_clone_instance()`, finds that some are not on the
> right slice, tries to move them to the correct slice (expecting they
> are from a non escaping EA). That causes some of the `Store`s to be
> disconnected. When the resulting code runs, execution fails as some
> fields are not copied.
>
> The fix I propose is to skip `ArrayCopyNode::try_clone_instance()`
> when `src` and `dest` classes don't match as this seems like a rare
> enough corner case.
