--------------------+-------------------------------------------------------
When trying to assigned capture string to a Complex type the generated PIR
does not quote the string token so one ends up with something like: -
{{{
new $P14, "Complex"
assign $P14, 10i
}}}
When you really want: -
{{{
assign $P14, "10j"
}}}
This can be fixed by adding the a valflag option in src/PAST/Compiler.pir
similar to String's settings.
valflags['Complex'] = 's~*:e'
However, this might break some future intended usage.
It would be something useful to control from NQP.
