[05 17:51:20] <Zoffix> ... and I'm using it on... ?
[05 17:51:45] <Zoffix> piojo2: well, that would've been ^ a better
solution, but apparently that's also broken :P
[05 17:52:00] <Zoffix> Oh, wait
[05 17:52:16] <Zoffix> m: grammar { token TOP { :my $*v = 42; <foo> };
token foo { {dd $*v } <bar> }; token bar { :temp $*v = 100; <bez> }; token
bez { {dd $*v } .+ } }.parse: "foo"

[05 17:52:24] <Zoffix> It works if you name your variables right :P
[05 17:53:39] <geekosaur> that error seems a trifle LTA
Apparently it's reacting to the default value being a Failure. Which is
fine as to mechanism, but it'd be better for it to note an uninitialized
variable and still better yet to recognize that it could be a typo.
(Yes, I recognize this could be tricky.)
