Issue #5860 has been updated by Dominic Cleal.

The same goes for returning hashes from a selector:

    $foo = "test"
    $real_foo = $foo ? {
      default => { test => "foo" },
    }
    notice($foo[test])

throws this:
    err: Could not parse for environment production: Syntax error at '{'; 
expected '}' at /home/dcleal/tmp/5860.pp:3 ...

Bug #5860: arrays do not work in selectors

Using an array in a selector does not work:

    $info = [ "acrews", "Adam", "/bin/bash" ] 
    $shell = $info[2] ? { 
        /bin/ => $info[2], 
        default => "/sbin/nologin", 
    } 

I get: Syntax error at '?'; expected '} 

If I do this it works: 

    $info = [ "acrews", "Adam", "/bin/bash" ] 
    $AA = $info[2] 
    $shell => $AA ? { 
       /bin/ => $info[2], 
       default => "/sbin/nologin", 
    }

An array element should be able to be used exactly like any normal variable.

I see this on 2.6.4.
