Does it perhaps belong somewhere else?We had a bit more discussion about that on #perl6 (see <http://moritz.faui2k3.org/irclog/out.pl?channel=perl6;date=2007-06-20#id_l962>) Basically I think that - we need the test somewhere and - it is not a test that one would usually write unless he/she found a regression in one implementation. Therefore it would be good to have them somewhere separately, in an implementation-specific manner. That would reduce the "wtf?"-effect while reading the official tests. Of course all other implementations have to pass them as well... I'd suggest t/regression/$implementation/ in the pugs repository as the new location for such tests. I'd any comments on that.
