"is" is meant to perform a bitwise comparison (I think today it
is working as designed or it's very close to this target).
So on class references "is" performs a bitwise comparison of the
references themselves.
On values (like structs) "is" compares the struct values bit-wise.
In your code x1 and x2 contain the same bit patterns (32 bits set
to zero), so "x1 is x2" is true.
