Newline definitely is significant in some places. In certain contexts spaces are too. There's no context free grammar for Julia – in fact, it's syntax probably isn't context free, although there's a very limited amount of context required. If someone wanted to try to come up with one, that would be cool. Keeping it in sync with the actual parser might be a pain, but the parser has mostly settled down at this point.
