True. I believe the actual issue is that the implementation is different in 28 and 29+. Specifically, in 28 the ```Manifest.singleType``` returns an instance of ```Manifest``` but method ```<:<``` is not defined.

Check https://lampsvn.epfl.ch/trac/scala/browser/scala/tags/R_2_8_2_final/src//library/scala/reflect/Manifest.scala

Sorry for the confusion.
