That looks like it might be working correctly, except cmd.exe wasn't told to
UTF-8 code page (need to run `chcp 65001`).

On 2017.07 on Win7 with 65001 code page enabled, the » char doesn't show up at
all. Just seems to get removed from the content if I paste it into the terminal.
The default REPL uses `prompt` to read stuff and here's another datapoint:
prompt() returns Nil if the data it reads has fancy Unicode chars like » or ｢｣:
C:\Users\zoffi>perl6 -e "say prompt"
»
Nil
C:\Users\zoffi>perl6 -e "say prompt"
42
42
C:\Users\zoffi>perl6 -e "say prompt"
42»
Nil
C:\Users\zoffi>perl6 -e "say prompt"
»42
Nil
Looks like it might be a good place to start looking at for the OP bug.
