+// Regression test for #16223: without NLL the `if let` construct together with
+// the nested box-structure of `Root` causes an unwanted collateral move.
+
+// The exact error prevented here is:
+//
+// error[E0382]: use of collaterally moved value: `(root.boxed.rhs as SomeVariant::B).0`
+//   --> src/main.rs:55:29
+//    |
+// 56 |         lhs: SomeVariant::A(a),
+//    |                             - value moved here
+// 57 |         rhs: SomeVariant::B(b),
+//    |                             ^ value used here after move
+//    |
+//    = note: move occurs because the value has type `A`, which does not implement the `Copy` trait
+
+// check-pass
