I wonder: why does take inside a gather structure returns undef?
I think it would be nicer if it could return the taken value, so that,
for example one can write something like:

  say take 2

or like:

  while cond($n) {
   my $res = compute($n)
   $n /= take($res)
  }

there is a reason why this is a completely stupid idea?

I was thinking the same thing the other day. Maybe this is a good one
to post to p6l, actually. Unless someone already knows the answer or
can find it in the synopses.
