Description Brian Svihovec CLA 2012-01-16 11:06:36 EST 
Given the following EGL source:

    data Any?;

    function setData(value any in)
    	if(value == null)
    		data = null;
    	else
    		data = value;
    	end
    end

    function main()
    	var1 int? = null;
    	setData(var1);
    	setData(null);
    	setData(123);
    end

A NullValueException is not thrown for 'setData(var1)'

NOTE: It appears that an NVE is thrown if you change the parameter in setData to be 'string' instead of 'any'.
