An itemized empty list is getting ".perl"-stringified as "$()", which I think is wrong since $() means some idiom using "$/". The fix should be just to make it stringify as "$( )" (with a space in the middle) or maybe "().item" for clarity. (Maybe in a future version of the language, the syntax "$()" could be made to really mean a itemized empty list.) > say $( ).perl $() > say ().item.perl $() > 'foo' ~~ /o+/; say $() oo
