The problem here is that Rakudo is mis-interpreting the "or" that
follows the sub as being an infix:<or>, at which point it gets confused.
In other words, the expression parser doesn't yet recognize the
closing brace as being the end of a statement.
Anyway, it's definitely a bug in Rakudo, and I'll try to fix it soon.
