Comment (by osa1):

 rwbarton pointed out in #12779 that argument of `isTrue#` should be `0#`
 or `1#`. The documentation also says the same thing in different words:

 {{{#!haskell
 {-# INLINE isTrue# #-}
 -- | Alias for 'tagToEnum#'. Returns True if its parameter is 1# and False
 --   if it is 0#.
 isTrue# :: Int# -> Bool   -- See Note [Optimizing isTrue#]
 isTrue# x = tagToEnum# x
 }}}

 So maybe this is expected and we can close this ticket and #12779.
