Rakudo r33613 doesn't seem to recognize ranges in :x() pairs as such.
The specced semantics are that :x($a..$b) should mean "match between
$a and $b times (neither more nor less)".
$ perl6 -e 'say "foofoofoo".subst("foo", "bar", :x(1..2))' # right
barbarfoo
$ perl6 -e 'say "foofoofoo".subst("foo", "bar", :x(5..6))' $ wrong
barbarfoo
By the second example, it seems to me that what's happening is that
the range is evaluated as a scalar representing its length.
