An item assignment inside a comma-separated list works as expected as long as
the preceding element is a literal:
➜ dd 1, my $x = 2, 3
1
$x = 2
3
However when the preceding element is a sub or method call, the assignment for
some reason gobbles the whole remaining list (as if it were a list assignment):
➜ dd Int(1), my $x = 2, 3
1
$x = $(2, 3)
➜ dd 1.Int, my $x = 2, 3
1
$x = $(2, 3)
I would assume this is a bug.
Unfortunately, http://design.perl6.org/S03.html#List_prefix_precedence does not
go into details on how exactly the LHS of an assignment is supposed to
determine item vs list precedence though.
