You can parameterize on more than types, so the error can't quite be that. But
now it's very close:
$ ./perl6-m -e 'my Array[Numerix] $x;'
===SORRY!=== Error while compiling -e
Undeclared name:
Numerix used at line 1. Did you mean 'Numeric'?
Test added to S32-exceptions/misc.t to make sure we don't regress on this in
the future.
