21:04 < moritz> nom: $_ = 'a'; /a/ ff /a/; 21:04 <+p6eval> nom 327fc9: OUTPUT«Method 'match' not found for invocant of class 'Any' in method Bool at src/gen/CORE.setting:7239 in sub infix:<ff> at src/gen/CORE.setting:8502 in block <anon> at /tmp/YknKE09sGg:1 in <anon> at /tmp/YknKE09sGg:1» the $_ that /a/ matches against ends up being Any, not 'a'. Compare with: 21:04 < moritz> nom: $_ = 'a'; /a/ || /a/; 21:04 <+p6eval> nom 327fc9: ( no output ) works fine there 21:05 < sorear> nom: $_ = 'a'; m/a/ ff m/a/ 21:05 <+p6eval> nom 327fc9: ( no output ) 21:05 < sorear> I think I see the problem 21:06 < moritz> sorear: what is it? 21:07 < moritz> ah, probably the sub infix:<ff>($a as Bool, $b as Bool) 21:07 < sorear> moritz: 'ff' is probably calling a helper sub, which calls .Bool on the arguments ... but $_ doesn't exist in the helper sub 21:07 < moritz> tries to coerce the regex to Bool, but no $_ present anymore
