Compilation error when inline def calls typeChecks

[adamgfraser]

minimized code

import scala.compiletime.testing.typeChecks

object Minimized extends App {
  
  inline final def assertCompiles(inline code: String): Boolean =
    if (typeChecks(code)) true else false
  
  inline val code = "1 + 1"
  val result = assertCompiles(code)
  println(result)
}

// scala.MatchError: EmptyTree (of class dotty.tools.dotc.ast.Trees$EmptyTree)

expectation

I would expect this to compile and return the same result as typeChecks.
