not as happy as you think:
my $foo = '0';
my String $bar = '0';
if $foo { say 'foo true' }
if $bar { say 'bar true' }
Would print 'bar true', but not 'foo true'. (In other words, variables
of type Any keep the Perl 5 behav
to `$new'" if $verbose;
...
}
The colon is just a different syntax for a pair constructor; "say" is
what many languages call "printline".

On the other hand, the current behavior may be somewhat entrenched, and
might break our promise to assume that code is Perl 5 until we see a
different indication. As an alternative, perhaps the -H command-line
