Comment(by coke):

 This calls {{{Parrot_ns_find_named_item}}} under the covers, which itself
 has a bug @ TT #1223

 Note that the docs for '''that''' function say more explicitly:

 {{{

 Find the given C<name> in lexicals, then the current namespace, then the
 HLL
 root namespace, and finally Parrot builtins.  If the name isn't found
 anywhere, return PMCNULL.

 }}}
