RFR: 8193567: Conversion of comparison nodes affects local slots in optimistic continuation

[Attila Szegedi]

A sad +1. I too wish this were easier to solve. Can you point me to the code parts that cause differences in local slot assignment? I guess I could try to figure it out myself from that terrible expression in the test, but if you have a quick explanation…

Thanks,
  Attila.
