• SR-11593 REPL incorrectly reports URL as nil

Issue Description:

Run this code in a real iOS app with a breakpoint at the last line:

        struct Booking {
            var start_time: Date?
        }
        let booking : Booking? = Booking()
        
        let urlAsString = "http://www.google.de/"
        let url = URL(string: urlAsString)
        
        print(booking, url) // breakpoint here

Look in the variables list in the debugger. Both `booking` and `url` are shown as `nil`. But in fact they are not `nil`, as the console will prove (see screen shot).

If you change Date and URL to NSDate and NSURL the problem goes away. So it is confined to Swift overlay types.
