From a proposed changelog to the fix (https://github.com/yast/yast-core/commit/7fb894662dba29389bc553ee3ffdbac9b68... )

Fixed function type matching to be contravariant for arguments (return type has always been covariant, correctly). Interface expected to handle "any" argument will no longer accept implementations handling only a specific subtype. Conversely, interfaces expected to handle a "string" will also accept an implementation handling "any". Affects the "is" builtin; breaks *-bindings relying on the bug!
