class A {
  val html = (null: Any) match {
    case 1 => <xml:group></xml:group>
    case 2 => <p></p>
  }
}

Compiles in 2.9.2, fails in 2.10 with:

a.scala:5: error: error during expansion of this match (this is a scalac bug).
The underlying error was: type mismatch;
 found   : scala.xml.Node with Serializable{def child: Seq[scala.xml.Node]}
 required: scala.xml.Node with Serializable{def child: scala.xml.Node*}
  val html = (null: Any) match {
                         ^
one error found

Obscure command line option to the rescue: also compiles via

% scalac -Yeta-expand-keeps-star
