Re: What is a LoweredAwayLexical?

The optimizer can lower lexical variables into local variables. When it does so, it keeps track of this so that it can give you this error message. The `given` block and the `when` blocks are optimized away. If you move the first `$a` declaration to inside the `given` block the error goes away.

Yesterday I created a new when clause in an existing working program, which worked fine, but today when I came to exercise another previously working when clause it was broken. The golfed version... my $a = 41; given 6 { when 5 { my $a; } when 6 { say $a + 1; } }
