-----------------------+----------------------------------------------------
Currently, there is no way to specify the encoding of a heredoc in PIR.
Every heredoc is converted to a string in the default ASCII encoding, but
8-bit chars a silently accepted. There are two tests that rely on that
behavior:
{{{
t/compilers/imcc/syn/objects.t
t/library/mime_base64.t
}}}
It should be possible to create a heredoc with an encoding like this:
{{{
$S0 = <<utf8:"EOF"
utf8 text here
EOF
}}}
