FWIW, we're aware of the problem.
I posed this very question to Larry a few months back, when I was writing E6.
We're still mulling over the correct answer. The last thought on the problem
that Larry's shared with me was that there may need to be a special case for
allowing a single &block parameter after the slurpy (which would then be
popped off the parsed arg list before slurpification).
I don't think either Larry or I thinks that's ideal, so we'll probably keep
working towards a better (more general) solution to the problem.
