[Swift-devel] Could not convert value to boolean

[Michael Wilde]

David and I just discussed this. Its bug 585, currently assigned to Mihael.

Its also holding up people on Sarah's team at UCI.

David tells me that if you run the simple Swift script in bug 85 100X, its almost guaranteed to happen.

Mihael, do you know the cause and/or need anything from us to fix this?  Any extra logging we should insert?

- Mike
