There are a class of warnings that do not emit their warnings on
$*ERR, but always on the original stderr, which we can see by this
program which should eat both stdout and stderr, and does for most:

$ cat warn.t
use MONKEY-SEE-NO-EVAL;
use IO::String;

my $dummy-io = IO::String.new();
sub MAIN($code) {
    $*OUT = $dummy-io;
    $*ERR = $dummy-io;
    try EVAL $code;
}

$ perl6 warn.t 'warn pi; say e'
$ perl6 warn.t "sink 3"
WARNINGS for /Users/wcoleda001/sandbox/perl6-doc/EVAL_0:
Useless use of constant integer 3 in sink context (line 1)

$ perl6 warn.t 'my $a; my $a'
Potential difficulties:
    Redeclaration of symbol '$a'
    at /Users/wcoleda001/sandbox/perl6-doc/EVAL_0:1
    ------> my $a; my $a⏏<EOL>



This might be due to some code in src/Perl6/Actions that needs to be
updated to deal with the fact that the $*ERR and $*OUT might be
overridden.
