Since $.x is really equivalent to self.x, I suspect that Rakudo and Pugs
have this one correct and using $.x in the say statement is an error.
Either that or the body of the class declaration needs to have an
implicit self (perhaps the protoobject?). We probably need
clarification from p6l on this one.
AFAIK, statements are definitely allowed in method and class declaration
bodies.
