Since the current error message looks reasonable to me (though different from 
STD's) I went ahead and added a test to S32-exceptions/misc.t with the 
following commit: https://github.com/perl6/roast/commit/5265f7d69e

But: The new error message only happens with "my Int a;". Without the semicolon 
we get the old error message.

$ perl6-m -e 'my Int a;'

===SORRY!===
