REPL regression with instantiating class instances from the `scala.concurrent.duration` package

Compiler version

3.2.1

Minimized code

Open a Scala 3.2.1 REPL:

Welcome to Scala 3.2.1 (17.0.5, Java OpenJDK 64-Bit Server VM).
Type in expressions for evaluation. Or try :help.

Expectation

Scala 3.2.0 REPL:

Welcome to Scala 3.2.0 (17.0.5, Java OpenJDK 64-Bit Server VM).
Type in expressions for evaluation. Or try :help.
                                                                                                                        
scala> new scala.concurrent.duration.DurationInt(5)

Output:

val res0: scala.concurrent.duration.package.DurationInt = 5

Although, the result is also weird, there's a mention of scala.concurrent.duration.package.DurationInt, which is not the same fully qualified name. As far as I can tell, this behavior is consistent in Scala 3.1.3 too. I did not check older versions.

Edit:

Scala 2.13.10 reports the same value as:

val res0: concurrent.duration.DurationInt = scala.concurrent.duration.package$DurationInt@5

The mention of package might just be down to the bytecode encoding and might be completely fine.

Note that the problem isn't in the instantiation itself:

scala> (new scala.concurrent.duration.DurationInt(5)): Any
val res0: Any = scala.concurrent.duration.package$DurationInt@5

but in the REPL code for type-driven printing of values (as obvious anyway in the stack trace: dotty.tools.repl.Rendering).

It seems from #16387 that the package-object angle isn't relevant; it's a value-class thing. But maybe it's relevant that neither value-class is top level.

Dale has a suspect: #15545 . But it does have a test of an inner value class, so why are these failure cases different?

[SethTisue]

Ah, it's because you need a package declaration; it needn't be an inner class.

I think this is the minimal reproducer:

package p
class D(val n: Int) extends AnyVal

and then in the REPL, new p.D(5) or even just null.asInstanceOf[p.D]

(We should still also include a test that has an inner class and a package, though, since we're slinging JVM-level class names and inner classes is an easy area for that to go wrong.)
