 Hmm.  I'm puzzled how this can work.  'null' can be lifted to _any_
 nullable type, so why is this not ambiguous?  What's special about
 Nullable<int>?

+It seems to me, that during constant folding null -> int conversion is
+allowed.
+
+When I tried
+
+byte? i = null / null;
+
+I got 
+
+error CS0266: Cannot implicitly convert type 'int?' to 'byte?'. An
+explicit conversion exists (are you missing a cast?)
