 I'm also interested in this bug, so I added myself to Cc:. I hope it's OK.

 This is a mini bug - in CEE_ISINST, we need to check whether one of
 the types is a generic instance and then use some other comparision
 function (which still needs to be written).

+Please note that this special handling is only required in certain
+cases. For example here:
+
+class A<T> { }
+class B<T> : A<T> { }
+
+test (A<int> a) {
+  if (a is B<int>) { ... }
+}
+
+the usual handling is just fine, becasue if we statically know the
+value is of type A<int> and it's B, then it's B<int>.
+
+To be precise the situation is when we know the value is of type T1,
+T2 is subtype of T1 and all generic parameters of T2 are used in
+subtyping declaration of T2, though I would be still happy if only the
+case of T2<p1,...,pn> : T1<p1,...,pn> was handled this faster way.
+
+I'm marking this because this check is performance critical for
+Nemerle code.
